Bonjour à tous, and Wanju
I hope that you enjoyed the cool change across the weekend. We are one week closer to the Easter holidays and have a week less to get things done before the holidays arrive. Senior School students have already received their progress reports and it is time to look at the Learning Area grade predictions for the rest of the school too. Reviewing and analysing the data means nothing if it doesn’t turn into action that produces a positive outcome for the students. This why student feedback is so important.
Education is a partnership. Although sometimes it may feel more like a hostile take-over. Our job is to work with the students in; developing the aspiration to learn; creating relevance for the learning and seeking the best way to deliver the learning. Over the next couple of weeks as you are reviewing the term’s data please use the time to revisit our Best Teacher poster and the teaching and learning strategies it contains to look for ways to improve the outcomes for our students.I encourage you to actively engage with your PC as they prepare the LA review for 2021 (delayed due to the COVID preparations) and the 2022 LA plan.

COVID news
At the end of last week our COVID total was 6 students who have tested positive, 3 who have recovered and 3 at various stages of isolation. Two staff have also been isolating last week due to household contact and are due back this week. Our Staffing contingencies are holding up well for now.
There have been approximately 37 students who have been identified as close contact. If they are asymptomatic they are allowed to return to school under WA health conditions and most have. They are supposed to be isolating once they get home in the afternoon, but unfortunately some parents are not following this instruction.
