Dear families,
Welcome back!
We would like to welcome all students and their families to the new school year and hope that you have enjoyed a restful and relaxing break with your children.
We have started working on our 2019 calendar and have include some of the Term 1 dates in this newsletter, please keep an eye on the skoolbag calendar to ensure you don’t miss anything! We are excited about the thigs we have planned for students back and look forward to starting 2019 learning journeys as we continue to work towards being the best learners we can be.
STAFFING
At the end of 2018 we said farewell to some staff that have now been re-appointed to our school. We tried to keep community informed of appointments as they were occurring via email, skoolbag and Facebook. Photos and brief personal introductions of staff new to our school are included in this newsletter. I am sure you join me in welcoming each of them into our community.
We are also happy to have Nicol Rohl (ACEO) returning after taking leave to care for her partner. Nicol will be working her hours over 2 days.
Ms Nikolopoulos is on leave in Term 1, Ms Ingrid is also on leave. We look forward to their return later this year.
PARSONS ROAD UPGRADE
We hope that you have noticed the changes to the line marking and signs along Parsons Road!
The road surface has been improved, and the markings have been altered. Please if you are using the drop off –don’t get out and leave your car, TTG Council patrol school perimeter area regularly and issue fines accordingly.
Using the crossing, following speed limits, parking signs and line markings all ensure that all of our students arrive and leave school safely. This is particularly important during the busy drop off and pick up times.

We will publish another newsletter next week with more detailed information and photos of our new students. There will be permission forms/student detail check forms sent home with your child tomorrow - we need these forms returned so that we have authorization to publish your child's image in the newsletter.
