From the APA
Thank you to the many families who took the time to complete a recent survey around the Assistant Principal's role and how I am performing. I really appreciate the many positive comments as well as the feedback on how to keep improving in this role. A wise person once told me that all feedback is a gift as we can always take something to be better educators for our students and their families.There were so many respondents and this in itself is a positive. But the feedback was wonderful to hear the many positives so Thank You! From here, I have developed, in consultation with a representative from Townsville Catholic Education, a professional plan to continue to support our students and their families at Holy Spirit Catholic School.
Recently, we were made aware of a situation that put our students at risk during pick up time on Ross River Road. A Compass message was sent to families to remind everyone of the safe pick up zones for our students.Hatchett St Carpark - Students wait in the Hall and families are called by a member of admin to meet in the pick up zone in the carpark.
Albert Street - A staff member is supervising students inside the gates on Albert St as parents park in the allocated parks to collect their child.
Church Carpark - A member of admin calls families to the designated pick up zones. Students are seated on the grassed area and are supervised by staff.
Can I please ask, for the safety of our students, that cars are not parked illegally on footpaths, in ``No Standing" areas, on the crossing. Your assistance with this is greatly appreciated.
Good luck to our Year 6 cohort and staff as they head off on the next adventure, Year 6 Camp at Lake Tinaroo. We wish them safe travels.
Happy Days
Paul Martin
