Principal’s Report
Dear Families,
Many thanks to all families for your support on Sports Day, it was a fantastic event, congratulations to the winning team Shepherd breaking an 11 year gap in victory. The efforts of all students were highly commendable and great fun.
The Cybersafety session for parents on the 19th March, was very informative and highlighted a number of areas of concern when our students are using the internet. The most important message was for parents to be aware of the activity of their children when using the internet, knowing their passwords and regularly taking note of who they are communicating with as ‘friends’. Keeping open lines of communication with your children is critical, ensuring they can discuss issues confidently with the knowledge that you will be there to support them.
Our new Governing Council met for the first time in week 8. Congratulations to our new committee led by Michael Field as Chairperson. The representatives for this year are Shane Bissmire, Trudy McCard, Lauren Bennett, Gina Hattingh, Karina Gabell, Nicole Tissen, Martina Portman, Baden Nicholas, James Rundell, Alice Rawsthorn, Jane Kennedy, Kylie Caruso, Julie Coe and Claire Bosworth. Their role includes supporting the decision making of the school, informing us of issues and concerns in the community and representation on school committees.
In terms 2 and 3 Sue Schmidt will take long service leave, Dana Lauck will be in the Deputy Principal role in her absence. Liz Loveday will be on leave for the first 4 weeks and we welcome Viki Daher as the teacher in her absence.
I am really looking forward to joining Kathy Liscombe, Dean Carter and the year 7 students on the camp to Canberra next week. This is a fantastic experience for the students as they develop their knowledge of the Civics and Citizenship course. I am confident they will represent our school with pride and respect.
Finally, many thanks for your support throughout the term, our focus on learning dispositions and capabilities has seen classes settle into school routine and take up the challenges offered to them in the curriculum.
Best wishes for the holidays.
Regards
Debbie
