Parent Teacher Interviews – next week
Parent Teacher Interviews are scheduled to go ahead in Week 2 on the 4th and 5th of May. This is an opportunity for parents and guardians to meet with their child/ren's teacher and discuss their learning progress so far. School will finish at normal time on the 4th of May, however, we have a half day (pupil-free) on Wednesday the 5th of May to allow for the majority of these interview times. Students will finish school at 12:45pm. Buses and OSHC will run earlier on this day. Students catching the school bus or attending OSHC will need to bring lunch.
Parents who will attend these interviews on campus will need to book via Parent Teacher Online (PTO) and use our QR Code on entry. PTO will be available to parents tomorrow. We encourage our parents not to mingle before or after interviews on campus, as we have a number of restrictions in relation to visitors on campus, and must respect the timeframe of the interview slots.

2021 Insight SRC Parent School Improvement Survey
Later this week you will receive an invitation to participate in Adventist Schools Australia’s Parent Survey. We use the results from the School Improvement Survey to ensure that we provide, for our students, the best possible education experience. We need your help with this survey and we appreciate the time you will take to complete this survey.
We will be sending home to you, a paper invitation to participate in this on-line survey. Every parent will be given a unique access code so that your opinions will be 100% anonymous. Parents' views assist us to provide a more accurate, reliable, and equitable picture than is obtained using only staff and student measures. We would like to encourage you to participate in this survey, as the more data gathered, the more this will assist us in providing the best possible educational experiences for our students.
The survey will be ‘live’ through to close of business on Friday 7th of May.
Thank you in advance for your participation in this survey.
