Primary Staff Meeting Recording from yesterday
Student Withdrawals
- As mentioned yesterday, please can Class Teachers/EAL teachers send an email to the families of the students who have withdrawn by end of March to farewell them, and to wish them all the best. If they are only temporarily withdrawing, then please let them know that you are looking forward to seeing them in August when they are in the year level above etc… or something to that effect.
- For Primary students who have permanently withdrawn, then please send them a leaving certificate as well.
- For families that are withdrawing at the end of the year, no need to email.
Resources for next week
For a selection of fun activities, this is a great website covering a wide range of curriculum areas. https://wideopenschool.org
One excellent resource on there is virtual field trips – you might wish to “send” your kids on a virtual trip as one of these fun activities. There are many other good resources linked to on here. Please do check that anything you set works without a VPN.
