WEEKLY REMINDERSWeek 2 Term 1 2020

Thank you to all those parents who have have been able to attend a Parent Teacher Meeting over the last week - it is always so wonderful to see you here at school and taking advantage of this valuable opportunity for feedback.

Please be reminded that your own attitude towards your class teacher, and the respect and care you afford them, (both in and out of school), is often reflected in your own child’s attitude and behaviour towards their teacher. Likewise, the opposite can also be true. It is very important to be mindful of speaking respectfully to, and about teachers in front of your children (and in social situations).

With one more week of before-and-after school parent teacher meetings, our hard working staff are focusing on finishing off the term well with their students.

Please continue to support, encourage and thank all staff for their hard work and dedication whenever you have an opportunity to do so.

A positive compliment whether in person or by card or email goes a long way!

Wishing you a calm and happy end to what has been another great year.

Riverton Leisureplex and try out for the school

compulsory only desirable so that we can confirm your

child’s ability to make the distance prior to our school

trials.

interest are proficient swimmers (at least Level 6 in

swimming classes), as we will not be teaching

swimming but will be building on their stamina and

technique.PLEASE NOTE: All students will need to

make their own way to and from the pool in the

morning.

The cost of entry will be covered by St.Emilie's,

however spectators are charged $2.
