Family and School Partnerships
Website and Values Launch Night
It was wonderful to have families gather with our staff on Wednesday night for the launch of a number of initiatives that we have been working on across 2021-2022 to meet school improvement goals. Our renewed Values, website and Joey's Jottings newsletter were on display throughout the night and areas for us to seek your feedback and have conversations with our staff about what you wanted to learn more about. These included our School Strategic and Improvement Plans for 2023 and beyond, our Values, website and newsletter.
We would like to thank our staff who set up, developed and facilitated the evening, our Year 6 students who lead games and activities for the children and of course our families who came to share the night with us. If you were unable to attend and would like to share with us what you have seen in the changes, please let us know.
As our website and newsletter are our major communication platforms, it is important that you visit these places for information that is updated and shared. Please consider subscribing to our newsletter if you haven’t already to ensure you don’t miss out each week on what matters in our school communication.
