Hello families and happy school holidays! What a wonderful first semester of 2025 we have had!

As we approach the end of the term, report cards offer an important opportunity to reflect on your child’s progress, celebrate their strengths, and identify areas where growth is possible. At our school, we embrace the diversity of each learner—recognising that every child has unique gifts, backgrounds, challenges, and ways of learning. Report cards are not just about marks; they are a snapshot of a child's learning journey, showing how far they’ve come and where they can grow next.

To support this journey, we strongly encourage families to attend Parent-Teacher Interviews, which will be held early next term. These meetings are a valuable chance to strengthen the home-school partnership and open up conversations around how your child learns best, what motivates them, and how we can work together to support both academic and social development. Teachers value your insights and look forward to working with you to set meaningful goals that help your child thrive.

These conversations can be incredibly powerful—not only in recognising your child’s achievements but also in helping them to set realistic, encouraging goals to work towards. Together, we can build a strong support network around each student, helping them feel confident, capable, and celebrated for who they are.

As we head into the school holidays, we hope all families find time to rest, recharge, and enjoy time together. Holidays are a perfect time to reconnect with nature, explore the outdoors, and enjoy some “green time” as a healthy balance to screen use.

We wish all families a safe, happy, and restorative break—and we look forward to reconnecting in the new term as we continue to support your child’s learning journey together.

Happy Holidays!

Best Regards,
Mrs. Peta Mawn
