Last week saw the return to face to face lessons for our Prep, Year 1 and Year 11 and 12 students. It was fantastic to have these students back on site, along with the students in Years 2-10 who have been attending during the Learning@home period. In speaking with the Year 12 students during Pastoral Care this week, there was a sense of relief and excitement amongst our seniors to be back on deck and re-commencing preparations for the next piece of summative assessment and building towards the external assessment block in October.

For students in the Learning@home environment, I encourage them to maintain consistent contact with their teachers to ensure that they are confident with the work they are attempting. I am aware of many students who may be struggling with organisation of time and prioritising work for different subjects. The solution! Get in touch with their teachers and ask for some assistance in how to structure the workload and prioritise tasks. Our staff are happy to help where they can to ensure that all students can continue to be the best they can be despite the challenges faced in the Learning@home environment.

As parents, I encourage you to contact the school if you need any support through the period of learning at home.
