IMPORTANT INFORMATION SESSION – Learning Journals
We use our Learning Journals as a way of reporting to parents throughout the year and we are wanting to make sure that every parent has the opportunity to access these.
Through observing the parental data on Learning Journals we are aware that not all parents are accessing this wonderful resource and we want to help everyone to do so, in order to keep you up to date with your child’s learning.
We are holding a drop in Parent Workshop on THURSDAY 19th JANUARY at 3pm in the gym hall. Childcare will be provided to allow parents to attend the drop in. Once you have collected your child at home time, please come to the Community Entrance.
Bring your questions and queries. We would love to help you!
If you would like to come along, please fill in the following form to let us know how many people are coming.
The best way to spread Christmas cheer, is singing loud for all to hear!
