Interim Reports

We wish to advise that all our students will receive Interim Reports at the end of this term. This is a progress report that presents a snapshot of how the year has started in each subject area. The report provides a rating on key attributes that are important for successful learning. While it is too early in the year to include an academic achievement rating, this report will give a clear indication of how your child is working in each subject.

Please be aware that our Term 2 Parent/Teacher/Student Interview Evenings will be held on Monday, 27th May from 3:30 to 5:00pm and Tuesday, 28th May from 3:30 to 6:30pm in Building 2 (our Grade 9/10 area, located directly above the Administration area).  This will give both families and teachers an opportunity to discuss how to best support students’ ongoing learning and allow evidence of learning or student work samples to be shared.  Students are strongly encouraged to attend with their parents/carers.  Interview appointments are for 10 minutes.  Details on how to book a Parent/Teacher/Student interview will be sent home at the beginning of Term 2. Please be aware that some staff are part-time and their availability will be shown in the booking system.   For these teachers and others who you may find are fully booked on the night, please make contact with them directly through the School Admin to make alternative arrangements.

We are continuing the phased implementation of our Communicating Learning Progress with Families Policy. This year, we will again share evidence of learning or student work samples with families throughout the year. We know that sharing learning progress more regularly will support the development of strong partnerships and help families feel connected to their child’s learning. Opportunities to meet with your child’s teacher/s about their learning progress will also be provided. The below table is an outline of the Communicating Learning Progress with Families schedule across the year.
