From the Principal
Years 3, 5, 7 and 9 student’s NAPLAN results were sent home recently.
On average these students achieved very good results in comparison with
Western Australian public
s choo l s and w i th
Australian schools. Our
students achieved higher
average scores in nine of
fifteen tests and made
higher average progress in
eight of fifteen tests. It is
pleasing to see the hard
work of teachers and the
great support of parents
reflected in student
a c h i e v e m e n t a n d
progress.
Thank you to all the dads
who came in to sit with their children for father’s day activities. It was
terrific to see so many fathers sitting shoulder to shoulder in classrooms
with beaming children proudly showing their work, reading and sharing
morning tea.
Thank you also to the P&C mums who wrapped hundreds of father’s day
presents and ran the father’s day stall so that students could take home
something for Dad.
