Term 4   

Second written report sharing progress and next steps along with classification and class placement for the following year.

Opportunity is provided, and encouraged, for both parties to meet should either require. The above times are set aside for formal reporting but parents should realise that they are welcome to visit at any time during the year if they have any queries over schooling. Often an early meeting can rectify areas of concern and iron out misunderstandings. The procedure for addressing concerns is to contact your child's class teacher in the first instance, then if necessary, the Syndicate Leader, then the Principal.

A copy of a report can be posted to a parent (not living at the family home) if they provide their address to the School Office.

NEWSLETTERS

A parent (not living in the family home) can be emailed the newsletters too by providing the office with their email address or a supply of stamped, self addressed envelopes.

Copies of past newsletters can be seen here.
