From Sarah Abbot Deputy Principal P - 2
REMINDERS FROM THE LAST P-2 ASSEMBLY
At the last assembly, I discussed the use of the High 5 for problem solving and conflict resolution. We encourage students to consider the size of the problem and the best course of action in solving problems. Sometimes we can use strategies as using our words, ignoring or walking away if faced with a problem or conflict situation. In the event students feel threatened or hurt, they need to immediately REPORT their issue to their classroom or duty teacher, so we can follow up.
PHOTO DAYS
Please be advised that photo days are 25th and 26th August. We will be sending home envelopes in Week 3. Year 6 will receive their envelopes in Week 4 after they return from camp. Further information about photo days will be emailed shortly.
PREP INFORMATION SESSIONS
We are currently taking Prep 2021 enrolments – please come to the school office to enrol your child ASAP, if you haven’t already done so. We are also currently offering positions to out-of-catchment enrolments on our waiting list.
Thank you to those people who came to our 2021 Prep Information Session on Tuesday night. We hope you found it informative. Please find the power point presentation attached from the session.
Our next event will be Prep Interviews for those children enrolled for Prep 2021 at Wondall Heights State School. This year’s interview process has changed from previous years. There will now be a group interview where parents will be presented information and asked to fill in questionnaires whilst their children interact with our teachers, in a group setting. The new format is designed to create a sense of community and for children and families to meet and establish connections in preparation for 2021. This format will also allow our staff to spend more time getting to know your children and to observe their interactions with other children. More information about this process will be provided to families as we send out invites to this event in the next few weeks. To ensure you receive your invite, please enrol at the office ASAP.
