Principal’s Report
It has been a very quiet start to the term. We are
already in week 3, with a lot happening for students
and staff, yet there is a very settled feeling to the
school.
As such, there is not a lot to report. Staff have been
undertaking training in various areas, much of this
outside of school hours, and they continue to
demonstrate outstanding commitment to providing our
students with the best education possible.
We have welcomed a recent upgrade to our WiFi
network which has resulted in the ability to use WiFi
enabled devices across large areas of the playground.
This will translate into students being able to
undertake more activities outside which involve the
need for access to our servers or the internet.
As the weather continues to cool, please remember
that school uniform must be worn by all students at all
times. If you are experiencing difficulty with
providing uniform, please contact myself for
assistance. All contact is kept in strictest confidence.
