Dear Parents & Community Members,
Our School Board meeting for this term took place on May 30 in a face-to-face environment for the first time this year. This gave the Board an opportunity for discussion on a range of topics including;
- Provision of a 1 to 1 update by Miss Cole and queries around the next steps in the roll out.
- Sharing of a COVID Impact overview and the effects on our school.
- Establishment of a timeframe for the delivery of the Parent/Carer Survey
- Discussion regarding the school’s ability to provide daily notification relating to Attendance
- Review of the School Board Nomination form.
Last week we were extremely fortunate to have a parent workshop held at our school b the Triple P (Positive Parenting Program) suite of resources; “Fear-Less Parenting”, relating to child anxiety. The workshop was presented by our School Psychologist, Mrs Sharon Bailey and her colleague Brendan Everett. The feedback from the presentation was very positive and given the session was over-subscribed, a further session may be conducted later in the year.
Finally, following an unsuccessful football career, many hours in sheep yards being battered by merino rams and a touch of arthritis, I will be undertaking knee surgery next week. While I am on leave for the balance of this term and early next term, Mrs Rudd will be assuming the Principal’s role and Ms Stephens will be the Associate Principal.
Peter Meston
Principal
