Our school uses the
Qparents platform for communication. Through this app, parents are able to notify of student absences, view reports and action invoices.
Teachers may also use the Class Dojo app. to send through any informal daily information.
The open policy of the school encourages informal communication supported by the following:
- Newsletters (each Fortnight)
- P & C Committee Meetings
- Teacher-Parent Communication Folders
- Individual Education Planning
- Parent Information evenings
- End of year celebration night
To ensure a satisfactory standard of communication between the school and parents/carers, notification of changes to phone numbers, addresses, medications, respite needs, alternative contacts or guardianship should be made to administration.
Junior School Students:
At the beginning of the year, your child will be issued with a ‘communication folder’ to be used as a home/school communication book. This is to establish communication channels between parents/carers and teaching staff. We encourage you to use this book on a daily basis, to exchange ideas and to inform teachers of significant happenings for your child. Teachers really appreciate a parent’s daily comments in this book and value the information that comes from home about the child’s health matters, sleep issues, habits, and preferences and so on. Messages to other members of your child’s team can also be communicated through the home/school book.
