Students continue to settle back into the routines of school, learning and connecting together.  I am continually impressed by the resilience of children as they have adapted to rapid change in recent times.  The support parents have provided for their children has enabled learning to continue as face to face schooling has resumed.  The partnerships between home and school are a key to helping children be their best.

While it is natural for students to feel a little tired, especially as winter has well and truly arrived, attending school every day enables excellent continuity and maximises their learning and development.  I encourage you to always feel welcome to discuss your child’s learning between home and school, the strong partnerships between home and school are fantastic!

We would love to hear stories of how your child’s school or teacher has inspired you during this time of COVID-19. Over the past few months it has become more evident than ever before that schools are the heart of our communities and are greatly valued.

The strong partnerships of parents working with teachers and schools to support our students meant student engagement in learning remained high even though teaching and learning was different in so many ways.

As a Department we are looking to capture these amazing stories of courage and growth and showcase many of these through a Celebration of Collaboration later in the year.

We encourage you to acknowledge your school, Child and Family Centre or local library for going above and beyond.
