Education / Book week celebrations
Last week our school held a combined celebration for Education and Book Week. Fun, interactive rotating activities were held in the morning session followed by a character parade. It was lovely to see the joy on our children’s faces as they proudly marched in their book character costumes. A fun day was had by all!
Good luck Joel H
On Friday, Joel will be representing our district at the regional athletics championships. He placed second in shot put at the recently held district carnival. A huge achievement! We wish Joel the best on Friday and know he will represent our school with pride, determination and most importantly great sportsmanship.
Thank you P & C
Thank you to our P & C for another successful Father’s Day stall. I am confident that all of our many Dads enjoyed their special gift on Father’s Day morning.
Sticks and Stones
Today our children were enthralled by our Sticks and Stones performance. Our children found the show about developing and maintaining positive relationships both fun and informative.
Student led conferences
Our student led conferences for Term 3 will be held on Wednesday 18 September 2019. Classrooms will be open between 3:15pm-5:15pm on this afternoon. You are welcome to attend at any time during this timeframe.
At the conference, your child will facilitate a conversation with you where he/she will share class and individual learning goals, progress towards achieving them and what his/her next learning goals will be. You will have the opportunity to see what learning expectations are in place for your child, and to see how your child is progressing to meet those expectations. You will also have the opportunity to see your child’s classroom, look through their workbooks and see their work displayed. Other conferences for children will be occurring at the same time as your child’s conference. Teachers will be available to join this conversation that will be led by your child.
If you would also prefer to book in for an individual appointment with your child’s teacher on this day between 4:15pm-5:15pm, you are invited to do so. A note will be coming home tomorrow with further details. Of course, as always, parents are encouraged to request an individual meeting with your child’s teacher at any time of the year to discuss your child’s achievement and growth.
It is the hope of our school that all children and a parent/carer attend the student led conferences.
Kind regards,
Michelle Barnes
