Week 8 Term 1 Wednesday 17 March 2021

Respect, Responsibility and Excellence

Dear School Community, Welcome to Week 8! Thank you to family

members who attended our BBQ breakfast and

yarn, parent information sessions and Individual

Planning Meetings.

During the middle of Term 2 we will be holding

parent/teacher interviews for all students to

discuss your child’s progress as reflected in

Semester One reports.

Guitar lessons

Welcome back to Mrs Wendy Hood who is able to

resume guitar lessons. Last week was the first

lesson and the students should be proud of their

listening skills! Wendy is shown below with students

from Kindergarten, Year 1 and Year 2 who

thoroughly enjoyed their first session.

COVID update Week 8, Term 1

We are happy to announce that Parents and

Carers are now able to enter school grounds. If

you wish to do so, please abide by the

following:

• Parents and Carers wishing to enter

school grounds, may only enter through

the office gate, located on Findon Street

(where you will find witches hats to help

guide you to the correct gate).

• Proceed straight into the school office

and scan the QR Code, sign in in and

show a staff member when completed.

• Before school - Parents and Carers must

leave the school grounds when they hear

the music playing.

• In the afternoon – Parents and Carers

may enter school grounds after the bell/

gates are opened. Again, Parents and

Carers must abide by the sign-in

arrangements. Following this, Parents and

Carers are not permitted on school

verandas. Should you need to speak with

your child’s teacher, prior arrangements

can be made via the school office.

• Alternatively, parents can kiss and drop

their child/children at the school gates.

This promotes and encourages

independence, social skills, resilience, less

disruption to students and classes and

follows school routine.

Kindest regards,

Sharne Turpin
