Today you will receive, via email, your child’s Report Card for Semester 1, 2021. Please be aware that this Report Card provides cumulative results for Academic Achievement, Effort and Behaviour across Terms 1 and 2.  Due to their differences in their curriculum, The Arts subjects are reported on separately, with students receiving a term result for each Arts subject they studied in Semester 1.

Please be aware that if your child enrolled during Term 2 or was absent for a significant period of time and, therefore, has not had the opportunity to demonstrate achievement in a subject, they will receive a report for Effort and Behaviour only.

Parent-Teacher Conferences will be held on Tuesday 20th July 2021 from 3.10pm to 7.30pm. These conferences are an invaluable opportunity to meet with your child’s teachers and further explore their progress this year. It is also helpful to gain insights from the teachers regarding feedback, strategies for improvement and any other considerations that may assist your child in developing their abilities even further.

In Week 1 of next term, you will receive an email outlining the process for booking conferences.  In the meantime, please take the time to review your child’s progress together with them, engaging in the work they have completed in class, the evidence of their learning in Seesaw – including feedback from their teachers – as well as the information they can share with you about their learning. Good questions to ask, at any time, are:

• How did you go/how are you going with your learning?
• How do you know that this is how you are progressing?
• What are you doing to improve/which strategies are you implementing to improve in your learning and progress?
• How will you know if your strategies are working?

Learning dialogues are effective in engaging all partners in your child’s learning so it is helpful to make this a habit or routine in your home. We look forward to seeing you on 20th July in our Sports Performance Hall for our conferences.
