Welcome to the latest edition of our school newsletter. It was only in the last newsletter that I was being warmly welcomed to the team. I am now writing this on my last day! I would like to take this opportunity to thank the students, staff and school community for making me feel welcomed and supported as I worked along side the leadership team in keeping a clear focus on teaching, learning and wellbeing. It has been a very rewarding and busy 6 weeks!

I have been grateful for the opportunity to be welcomed into classrooms to observe the school focus on targeted teaching in action and the wide range of learning opportunities for students to engage in. I have enjoyed the professional learning opportunities, working with teaching staff on where to next, while examining student reading data. I have also really enjoyed having students sharing with me their work and conversing with me on what they have improved upon and why it’s important to them.

Once again, thank you and I would like to wish you all the very best for the reminder of the school year and welcome back Kel Innis.

Lastly, a friendly reminder that the External School Review will be taking place on the 12 - 13 September. Please contact the school office if you would not like to take part in providing feedback to the review team.

Kind regards

Ange Burbury

Acting Principal
