Our House and Vice Captains gathered feedback from families who attended the event by using a form on Glow.

Some of the feedback included: 

What did you find out about your child’s learning that you did not already know?

• Online ordering school dinners, library days
• Personal reading
• What they’re learning over the year.
• The amount of natural resources etc. in the room
• Change from traffic lights to corrective steps

• What they are learning currently and the reasons for this
• Liked hearing about the daily routine
• Good overview of literacy and numeracy and how we can help. We’re all excited for the topic work.
• What is expected of my children throughout the year. Also what topics can aid with their learning from home
