Term 4 Week 8 - 2023

Celebrating the Success of Our "Transition to Primary School" Program

This week, we wrapped up our "Transition to Primary School" program. We would like to take a moment to express our gratitude to all our new and existing parents for their active participation and support. It has been wonderful to witness the enthusiasm and engagement during these past few weeks as we worked together to prepare their child for their exciting journey into Kindergarten.

Our parent education and information sessions have been a cornerstone of this transition, providing parents/carers with essential information to ensure a seamless start to the school year. This week, we delved into office procedures, school hours, communication methods, and the protocols for pick-up and drop-off, aiming to equip all our new and existing parents with all the necessary information for a confident beginning. Additionally, we shared insights into our canteen services and uniform requirements to assist in their preparations further.

The children's final Joey’s Juniors session was a true highlight, filled with the festive spirit. They were captivated by a Christmas story, immersed themselves in holiday-themed craft activities, and formed heartwarming connections with their older buddies. The social story about attending school was particularly impactful, helping them visualise and become comfortable with their upcoming daily routine.

The readiness and eagerness displayed by the children have been remarkable, and it is with great anticipation that we look forward to welcoming them as our new Kinders for 2024. We can't wait to see their bright faces next year, ready to embark on this wonderful adventure of learning and discovery.

Semester 2 Reports 

We wish to remind parents that our Semester 2 reports will reflect a new format in line with the recent curriculum updates in Mathematics and English for K-6. This change ensures alignment with the latest educational standards, research, and diocesan consistency. Please note that reports will be accessible via the Compass App from Friday, 8th December, after 3pm. We appreciate your understanding as we transition to this improved reporting method.
