Principal's Corner
Next Wednesday our students will meet their teacher and classmates for the 2020 school year.
Class teachers spend considerable time ensuring classes have a balance of gender and academic abilities. As adults, we know the importance of working with others who have different backgrounds and life experiences, it is important that children too, learn to work with others with whom they do not know.
It is natural for children to experience some anxiety when experiencing the unfamiliar. Some children will adjust quickly, while others will require more time. Parents can best support their children by reminding them they have successfully started the previous school year with new teachers and friends. New relationships will bring some challenges but many rewards.
On the afternoon of Thursday, 23 January, 2020 there will be an opportunity for parents to meet class teachers. This is a great time to drop off the children’s books and meet other parents.
I hope you will be able to join us tomorrow evening for Carols by Torchlight, it is a relaxing way to end the school year and enjoy the talented performances of our students.
God bless
