Lockdown Preparation
I’m sure many of you have seen in the newspaper, the need for schools to be ready for a lockdown. There is no suggested timeframe for this. Schools are just being asked to have guidelines and planning in place so that should there be a lockdown, we can action at home learning as soon as possible, to limit the disruption to your child’s education.
Staff have been informed of this need and we are in the process of ratifying guidelines and planning, should this occur. The majority of parents are now on Seesaw and this would be our main educational tool for lessons, along with various modes of communication for parents. If you have not joined Seesaw, now would be a great time to do so.
Further detailed information will be provided when and if we go into lockdown and students are asked to remain at home.
Year 6 Camp
Our year 6 students are getting very excited as camp is only a week away. We are hoping the weather will be kinder to us, however, the students will still have a fantastic time and I wish them all the best. You will love the Night Walk!!
If you have not already paid for camp, please do so ASAP.
Percentage of Attendance per year level.
Year | K | P | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
Att % | 88 | 90 | 93 | 93 | 91 | 95 | 89 | 85 |
The Year 1’s and Year 4’s have done a great job in maintaining their attendance. I know this weather makes it difficult getting out of bed, however, if you want your child to stay up to date with their learning, they need to be here every day.
We really need to keep those percentages up over 90. Please only allow your child to stay at home if they are sick. If you are having trouble getting your child to school, please let me know so we can work together to help your child reach their full potential.
Parents, remember to send us notification as to why your child is absent so it can be recorded accurately on our system.
