Principal News Week 1 Term 2

Welcome back to Term 2, I hope all families had a lovely break and spent

some quality time with family. Although these holidays were a very different

format to what we are used to. We would like to thank everyone in the Morgan

community for your positive attitude and flexibility given these challenging

times. We are very proud of how the community has adapted so quickly and

made the necessary changes to ensure continuity of learning for our students

continues. I want to give a huge shout out to our amazing teachers and

support staff for their hard work re-contextualising the curriculum into a remote

learning model and providing a face-to-face model as well. Thank you to our

parents for preparing and providing the conditions and environment

conducive to learning.

With the department and health minister’s recommendations, Morgan primary

and preschool strongly encourages families to send their children to school

provided they are well. We have returned to normal class structures and

curriculum. This means over the next week we will be progressively phasing out

online learning.

Staff changes for term 2 as follows:

Mr Earle will be teaching Japanese Tuesday’s with support from Rie

Uchida

Mrs. Miller will be teaching 3-5 Thursday’s

Mrs. Claridge will be teaching R – 3 Friday’s

With over 70% of our students attending school, the ability to manage this

format is not sustainable. For those families that choose to continue with home

learning you will need to collect a work pack between 2:00 – 4:00pm Monday

4 May, previous work will need to be returned to school for marking. We will

have our ups and downs over the next couple of weeks and things will not

always go as planned, but I am sure we will all learn from our experiences and

come out stronger on the other side. Rest assured though, that we are all in this

together, and there will not be any problems that we will not be able to solve

together. Please do not hesitate to share your experiences both positive and

negative with us, so that we can support each other and work together in the

best interests of our students and families.

If you have any questions or queries please do not hesitate to contact the

school via email, text, seesaw messaging or phone and I will personally answer

any queries or concerns.

respect to those who have fought and died for our country.
