Dear Parents and Caregivers,

Welcome back to Term 3 at St John’s.

Hopefully the holidays were a time to enjoy the company of family and friends and to enjoy a change of pace. Hopefully, the time away from the usual routine provided an excellent opportunity for rest, relaxation and the recharging of batteries in preparation for what promises to be a very busy, but hopefully a very productive third school term.

Thank you to the many parents who took the opportunity to meet with their child’s teacher at the end of the first semester.  These meetings hopefully provided an opportunity to celebrate your child’s learning successes as well as to set a goal in the area of mathematics that your child will be working towards achieving this term. The setting of learning goals allows students to develop greater ownership and accountability with their learning. Parents are encouraged to continue to have conversations with their child about the learning goal that has been set to support progress in reaching this goal.

We continue to work together, fostering respectful relationships with the common purpose of supporting students to grow in their understanding of their faith and reach their full learning potential. Thank you for your ongoing support. Working together in partnership supports students in reaching learning goals and supports learning growth.

Wishing everyone a great week ahead,

Mrs Jane Webb
Acting Principal
