Dear Everyone,
Student Led Conferences are scheduled for the Wednesday of week
nine and Staff are currently scheduling conferences.
I think this is a wonderful opportunity for you to sit formally with your
child, hearing and seeing the work they are doing at school, and the
progress they are making. Appointment times will be advised in the
next few days and I urge you to set aside the time to attend your child's
conference.
You will have the opportunity to follow up on these sessions early in
term 4 but we are always prepared to meet with you if you have any
concerns.
Have a great week,
Tony
