Reporting is ONE process by which this information is communicated to parents/guardians. Your child has been assessed against the standards in the Victorian Curriculum. In addition, you will find an assessment of student achievement against the Religious Education Framework.

Please contact your child's teacher if you have any questions or concerns about your child's report.

Formal Parent Teachers Interviews are  held in Term 1 & 3 but Parents/guardians are able to request an interview at any time throughout the year.

As mentioned above your child's Semester 1 School Report will be sent home next week. In addition each child will bring home a 'Snapshot of Learning' Communication book with samples of work from Semester 1,  which support scores and comments made on your child's reports. Please look at the collection of work samples and discuss with your child. They are a wonderful celebration of the children's achievements through Term 1 & Term 2. Please return Snapshot of Learning books to school by week 2 Term 3.  If you have any questions please make an appointment to see your child's teacher.

A reminder that the legal age for children to be able to sign up for most Social Media sites e.g Facebook, Instagram & Snapchat is 13 years old. This is in effort to keep children safe from online hazards from known and unknown sources. Whilst parents are responsible for the final choice of whether they permit their child to access Social Media sites, St Timothy's does not grant children permission to use their school email address. Please assist us in keeping your child safe online.
