Current School Focus
Our Triennial School Review 2005 – 2007 established three focus areas for the school.
- Marketing and Promotion
A marketing strategy to promote the school in a positive light and to maintain enrolment numbers is being established through a Marketing and Promotions staff focus group.
A program of parent workshops and information sessions has been established.
Co-facilitation of “fun events” with school P&C
- Facilities Management, Maintenance and Grounds Beautification
A strategic approach to facilitate management to improve the appearance of the school and maximize learning environments.
Working closely with Facilities Branch and actively investigating grant possibilities in partnership with our P&C we hope to continue to improve the physical appearance of our school buildings and grounds.
Successful Investing in our Schools grant of $20,400 to upgrade the quadrangle area to an aesthetically pleasing play and learning area.
- Curriculum Reform
The development of a school plan to implement the Key Learning Ares Syllabi and the Literate Futures Initiative which encompasses a consideration of Early and Middle Phases of Learning.
We are continuing our Integrated Planning sessions where teachers as a year level are being released to cooperatively plan Units of Work using the new syllabus documents. In line with the QCAR initiative, planning teaching and assessment are being aligned in this process and reporting to parents will be modified in the future to reflect the changes.
