Congratulations to KG2 for their very successful end of unit event. Parents had an amazing morning and students loved spending time with him. Enjoy your weekend, rest, relax and recover we will see you on Sunday. 


PD today 

Please be ready in the Gym by 1.15pm. The task for this afternoon will be explained and teams will work together from 1.40pm-2.30pm. Leave time is 2.30pm. 


Back to basics 

Consider how you are engaging and motiving your students, especially as we are coming to the end of Term 1. Here is a 90 second video to consider. 

Swapping of duties during field trips.

Please note, it is the responsibility of the teacher on duty to swap their duties if you are out on a trip. We have had incidents of areas being unattended as the duty teachers have been off campus and not arranged cover. You do not need to swap within your team, it can be anyone available. 

Thank you to the teachers who have done so. 


Report cycles

The report cycles are good to go. Comments and grades can be uploaded now. Please make sure your Admin reader has approved the comments before you add them to ISAMs. 

Teaching & Learning coordinator 25/26 

We will be opening the Teaching the Learning coordinator role for academic year 25/26. If this is a position you might be interested in please email Mr Lewis expressing your interest. More information will follow. 
Thank you Ms Catherine for your contribution to the T&L role, we will miss you. 


Breakfast with the Principal 

The Google sheet will be sent by the end of the week for you to add your boy and girl receiving breakfast with the Principal.

Sub Plan for Teachers on Cover
Why does it feel like more effort to prepare for a substitute than to push through and come to school anyway? It really shouldn’t feel like that!

Brisk has launched a new tool Sub Plan that helps teachers create substitute plans with ease. Just open Brisk, go to Create and select Sub Plan.
