This week’s theme is: “Respecting Our School” Student Progress Reports to Parents The teachers are very busy at the moment preparing the student progress reports to parents. The previous report format was idenfied in surveys as not meeng parent expectaons so this term we have adopted a new format. Student progress and achievement is determined using mulple sources of data. Children are assessed throughout the year and their results help to form teacher judgements. The new report format is more thorough than the previous version and I hope the parents find the reports to be more user friendly. The reports will be distributed to families in the final week of term. Junior School Council On Monday I met with the Junior School Council to discuss some of the acvies they would like to see happen at the school before the end of term two. One of their ideas was for the choir to perform for the residents at the Nathalia Hospital. We will liaise with Mrs King-Jones to work out a suitable date. On the final day of term we will be having an out of uniform day and the children will come dressed in a 70’s theme. There will be a disco during the day and children will be able to buy sausages in bread for lunch. This should be great fun and an ideal way to end the term.
