And that's how you spell AUSLAN
Are you keen to note upcoming school events such as school holidays, school closure days, excursions etc so that you can plan ahead?
After taking on board requests from members of the community, we have decided to increase our usage of our School App - Updat-ed. It will become the medium we use for sending quick alerts & reminders about school events and to update you, if for example the bus coming home from camp is late.
This week has been a whirlwind of discovery and excitement as our students delved into their respective inquiry units with excitement and curiosity. From the youngest learners to the seasoned seniors, each grade level has embarked on a unique journey of exploration and learning.
Earlier this week we sent an Operoo note asking for helpers for the Mother's Day stall. If you can help out for even anhour it we would be most grateful and if you can complete the form by Monday 6th May, it would be much appreciated.
We are delighted to extend a warm invitation to all Mother's, Grandmother's and significant women in our students' lives to join us for a special Mother's Day event at St Mary's Primary School on May 10th. It promises to be a memorable morning filled with love, appreciation, and cherished moments.
We're excited to announce the 25th Annual National Walk Safely to School Day, a special event where primary school children nationwide are encouraged to walk and commute safely to school.
Dear Parents
During 2023 the Victorian Curriculum & Assessment Authority (VCAA) evaluated and rewrote the Mathematics Curriculum for Victoria. Consequently, our report templates will be adjusted to include the new curriculum indicators which students are assessed and marked against.
The first our 'The Cybersafety Project' parent webinars, 'Protecting Children online', has been released for access by our community as a recording. If you were unable to attend the webinar on the evening, you can access it now from the website.
There have been a few items removed and a few price changes on our school tuck shop menu.
At St. Mary's we are committed to maintaining a culture of child safety. We implement strategies which demonstrate this through everyday life at the school, guided by the documents listed in the 'Read More' section.
Our Child Safety Officer is John Hein (DP & Learning & Teaching Leader).
To download the app just visit the App Store for iPhones or Google Play for Android’s. Search for Updat-ed and from the menu select our school. We’ll receive your registration request and will need to approve you before your app is up and running.
