Build a community that continues to learn

-Improve student achievement in English & Mathematics, through HITP coaching and explicit, evidence-based teaching.

 - Enhance student achievement in English & Mathematics by strengthening staff data literacy, focusing on analysing and applying data to inform and improve teaching and learning practices 

Build a community that is connected -Improve student attendance and strengthen family engagement to support learning and wellbeing.

It's been a funny old week with our Leadership class on their excursion. We have enjoyed seeing the photos of their adventures and look forward to hearing their stories. We are very grateful to Mrs Elwin and Mrs Fyfe for being on the job 24 hours a day since Monday and appreciate the support of Mrs Hayward, Mrs Brooks and Mr Morris, who also attended. Our families are great!

Our students have been busy! Years 3 and 4 participated in the Trent Barrett gala day on Tuesday. The teachers reported that they received many comments on the sportsmanship, respect and engagement displayed by our teams. Well done players! Thanks to Mrs Golding, Ms Karli, Miss Maddie and Ms Kate for attending and supporting our students. Many thanks also to Mr Yagnik, for assisting with transport and supervision. I'm pretty sure Kinder, Years 1 and 2 enjoy this day, being the bosses of the school!

Congratulations to our Year 3 and 4 students, who have displayed outstanding leadership skills. They have led assemblies, completed arvo jobs and looked after the smaller students in the playground. The future is looking bright!
