Semester 2 Report Cards and Academic Awards

On Tuesday you would have received your child's Semester Two report card.  As Ms Sleba has mentioned previously, there were some fantastic achievements that should, and have been celebrated.

I have been lucky enough this week to visit all classrooms and present numerous students with an Academic Excellence Award.  These are the students who have achieved outstanding academic performance in all learning areas (more specifically, all A, B and one C result).  When visiting the classrooms it was fantastic to see how proud the students were who received the awards.  At the same time, there were some students who were obviously disappointed.  I made sure to remind these students that there are numerous parts to a report card.  Two important parts are the achievement marks for their learning area (e.g. English) and also the effort marks.  I did spend time on the importance of the effort mark and the fact it is always important to persist with their learning and to try their hardest at all times.

Four students this semester received an academic medal for gaining an A in all 9 Learning Areas.  They are Abigail Allan (Year 4), Dominic Marsh (Year 6), Cameron Dennis (Year 6) and Grace Taylor (Year 6).  A special congratulations to these students.

Term 4 Basketball

This term we have had several students participating in basketball on a Tuesday night. I would like to take this opportunity to formally thank our expert basketball coach, Mrs Monica Conway.  Mrs Conway is extremely experienced in coaching basketball and it is no surprise that the students improved so much this season.
