Dear Parents & Community Members,
The School Board met last week for our first of two meetings this term. Discussions included a review of 2022 student data across literacy, numeracy and the social-emotional domain. Given teachers had spent considerable time analysing he data, the Board was also privy to the initial planning thoughts discussed. These ideas will be drafted into Operational Plans for the new school year and shared at the next meeting.
Last week I was privileged to spend the majority of my time with the Year 6 students at the Woodman Point camp. All individuals in the group pushed themselves to obtain goals over and above expectations – a credit to them all. Overall the attitude and levels of maturity demonstrated made attending staff extremely proud. Special thanks to Mr Lillico, Miss Powley and Mrs Barrett for supervision during the camp.
Finally, tomorrow (Friday, October 28) is World Teachers’ Day. We take this opportunity to thank ALL staff who work at Glengarry Primary School. This year’s theme is “Hats off to teachers”; please consider wishing staff a “Happy World Teachers’ Day” or lifting your hat when you greet them.
Peter Meston
Principal
