FROM THE DEPUTY PRINCIPAL – ACADEMIC

Welcome to the Academic Year Ahead

As we begin a new academic year, I would like to warmly welcome all students and families back to our community. The start of the year is always filled with optimism and opportunity, and it is a pleasure to see our classrooms, campus and learning spaces once again alive with energy and purpose.

I would also like to extend my sincere thanks to the many parents and carers who have attended our Parent Information Sessions so far. Your strong attendance and engagement send a powerful message to your children about the value of education and partnership between home and school. These sessions are an important opportunity to build shared understanding around curriculum, expectations and how we can best support students to achieve their potential. We look forward to continuing these conversations throughout the year.

This time of year is particularly important for establishing positive learning routines at home. Consistent habits such as regular homework times, reading routines, organised study spaces and healthy sleep patterns play a significant role in supporting academic success and wellbeing. When expectations are clear and routines are in place early, students are better positioned to manage their workload, develop independence and approach learning with confidence.

We encourage families to take the opportunity now to talk with their children about goals for the year ahead and how they can be supported at home. Small, consistent actions make a significant difference over time.

Thank you for your ongoing support and partnership. We look forward to a productive and rewarding academic year together.
