Work has begun on the multipurpose court with the removal

of the existing fence. With a beautiful new surface, it will

certainly make the bounce of the ball a little more

predictable! During this work, the entrance to the worksite

will be through a separate entrance from May St. The current

gate will still be in use for students.

Thank you to our parents and families for remaining off site

as much as possible and for being vigilant in keeping your

child at home if they are unwell. There have been some cases

of schools closing but not in our area.

As restrictions lift gradually, we are being able to return to

some of our usual activities. Our website features the most

recent parent guidelines from the Department of Education.

For our school there will not be any whole school assemblies

for some time however we will continue to recognise student

progress and achievement through our Merit Awards and

House Points. The Student Council will be holding three

discos next Thursday to recognise the great effort made by

students during the last few months. Great idea SRC!

We can now hold our School Photos and wonderful

Dance2bFit lessons in Term 3. Next term also sees the return

of weekly Scripture lessons. All approved visitors to the

school site must be inducted into the new safety protocols

and agree to abide by them to ensure the safety of everyone.

For this semester only, the school reports have been adjusted

in recognition of the impact of learning from home and at

school during Term 1 and 2, 2020. The teachers comment will

describe your child’s progress and achievement in the

learning covered during the first two terms of the year. The

report will focus on the learning undertaken in English and

Mathematics and a general comment encompassing learning

at home, commitment to learning and social development.

Due to the restriction to visitors on site, we are unable to

hold our usual face-to-face interviews, so class teachers have

begun to contact families to start the interview process by

phone. Those families not contacted this term will be notified

early next term of arrangements for the next round of

interviews.

Kind regards Charmian Cribb
