We are excited that we finally have a date for our Grade 7 students to return to school. We are looking forward to seeing them on Tuesday 9th June! 

A reminder to families that if your circumstances do change and students need to be attending on-site that the school requires 24 hours notice. This is to ensure the adequate supervision and preparation for students on-site. It is important to note that even though there are some students learning on-site that they are participating in class the same way as those at home; meaning they are seeing their teachers through online tutorials once a week and accessing their learning through CANVAS.

Celebrations

We are continuously receiving feedback from Grade 7 teachers who have been highlighting a number of students who are consistently completing all tasks set by teachers, respectfully and politely contacting their teachers using the CANVAS inbox and producing work of a high standard. You may have seen some of these students are ROCKS Stars in our recent newsletters. We are encouraging our teachers to contact home and provide feedback on all of our students' online learning successes.

Grade Focus

As the winter months are upon us we are focusing on ensuring our Grade 7s are in full school uniform. As part of our winter uniform, students are allowed to wear a winter skirt with navy stockings and a blue shirt.  In addition to this grey trousers or shorts may also be worn. Students are encouraged to wear their spray jackets, woollen or rugby jumpers in order to keep warm. It should be noted that beanies and hoodies are not part of our school uniform and are not to be worn to school. Students are able to layer, for example singlets underneath their uniform as extra layers, however these should not be visible from the outside.

Another one of our Grade foci at the moment is sensible behaviour which is one of our ROCKS expectations. Our students have been well-behaved with their learning however, sensible behaviour is particularly important at break times, before and after school. Sensible behaviour is one of our most important ROCKS expectations. This is because it encompasses respect and also ensures that our students are making positive decisions about the way they conduct themselves. This helps them to remain safe and healthy.

Grade Assemblies
