The Prime Minister, Scott Morrison’s announcement last night reinforced that schools are open for students whose parents are not able to supervise them at home as well as for students who are vulnerable. The Prime Minister also stressed that student learning remains a priority whether it be at home or in the classroom. Parents have been encouraged to keep their children at home wherever possible with schools providing the same unit of work for all students whether they are on or off site. It is important that all students return their work each week for marking, whether it is paper based or online. NAPLAN 2020 has been officially cancelled. Good news: Tania has begun part time work this week, mostly from home. We are all very happy to have her back again! Acting Principal, Amber Ryan
