Formation of Classes 2025  

LINK FOR PARENT INPUT CLOSING SOON

Over the last two weeks students have used a survey to nominate three to five peers who they would like to be in the same class with, in 2025. From this list, they will be guaranteed one peer.

Students may decide to choose children they play with only at school, or children of a different gender. You may wish to discuss this list at home, but it’s important our students have their own voice in this process. Students, especially Prep and Yr1s, will be supported in class by their teacher to complete this short survey.  All students will be reminded to not include names, for the sake of filling spaces, as they may end up in a 2025 with that student.

As parents, you reminded to share relevant information relating to your child’s learning and any particular personality clashes that you would like us to consider, through this link, which will close soon:

Parent voice in this process, does not include requesting certain friends or particular teachers.

Please do not send emails with 2025 information, as it may not be captured. 

Although we do utilise some software in the process of forming classes, be reassured that our teachers, admin and inclusion team have ‘human input’ at each stage of the process.

As always, when classes are formed, they remain in draft until day 8 of 2025.

First Aid Room

Although we do not have a school nurse, we are lucky enough to have all our staff trained in basic first aid.  We also have a designated room where we can administer first aid or, if necessary, quarantine sick students.

Over the last year we have noticed an increase in students coming to the first aid room, especially at the end of play, when lessons are starting and often during non- preferred lessons. 

When we have large numbers of students reporting for minor issues, who do not require first aid, other students who are ill or need urgent attention may have to wait, or not receive the full attention of staff. 

In order to triage the most urgent cases, such as playground injuries or asthma symptoms, we will be encouraging students with pre-existing injuries or very minor issues to see their class teachers.

As always, our staff are here to administer first aid, look after a sick student until you can come to collect him/her or make necessary emergency calls.  

Early Collection of Students

We understand students need to be collected early, from time to time. To ensure learning time is maximised and that there is a clear hand over, students will only be called to the office, when the parent arrives to collect.
