From the Primary

Welcome everyone, to a new school year! I hope that you all had a wonderful holiday and got to enjoy some beautiful sunshine and quality time with family and friends. I’d like to take this opportunity to extend a very warm welcome to all our new girls and their families; we hope that you settle into life at SCEGGS quickly but please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions at all over the coming weeks.

This year we also have a number of new additions to our Primary teaching team. Please see the Who’s Who booklet in this week’s Behind the Green Gate.

We are very much looking forward to meeting you all at our Parent Information Evenings in Week 2. These evenings are for all parents of girls from Kindergarten to Year 6. Parents will hear from their daughters’ teachers about aspects of the classroom programs, activities planned for the year and ways parents can assist their daughters at home. These sessions will be held in the girls’ nominated classrooms. However, we would love it if you could join us in the Primary Playground for some informal drinks before the sessions begin as an opportunity to get to know each other and to start the year in a positive way.

The Joan Freeman car park will be open for parking from 5.30 pm but will close promptly at 9.00pm on Monday and 8.00pm on Wednesday. The entry of the car park is positioned on St Peters Street which can be accessed via Forbes Street.

Parent Information Evenings

We urge you to come along and meet our wonderful team of teachers and to hear about the exciting things that will be happening at the school during 2024.
