Forum Information and Updates

Last week we had our first forum for term three the agenda included MAP testing for this term, Student Led Conferences and sharing information about staffing and classroom space in the Primary School for next academic year.

MAP testing G3-G5 May 8th -26th 

The Spring MAP testing is with us again, the students have been reviewing their test taking skills, this can be a bit of an anxious time for students so we have provided some information for you about the tests and how to prepare your child for their tests, schedules and what to expect. Our Last forum also provided lots of information about online support for test preparations through the Library Website using IXL Math, Tumbletots and the Khan Academy.  For further information about the MAP test please click here.

We will be holding our Primary Parent Teacher Conferences between Wednesday October 12th and Friday October 14th.  The conferences will look slightly different this year as we will be covering the vast majority of the conferences during the three allocated days listed below.

  •  (EY1-G5) conferences will be on Wednesday October 12th   (full day AB/Mix)
  • EY1-G5) conferences will be on Thursday  October 13th  (full day AB/Mix)
  •  (EY1-G5) conferences will be on Friday October 14th   (G4C, overflow, and special arrangements)

The Pre-signup sheets for families with more than one child will be available in the office tomorrow and Wednesday (October 4th and 5th) and will be outside the classroom on Thursday morning (October 6th). Please check the sign-up sheets carefully and make sure you sign up for the correct class/teacher.

If you are unable to make these days, as in the past, please contact the teachers to arrange another time. However, we do hope to be able to do as many conferences on the allocated days as possible.
