Dear Families and Friends
STUDENT FREE DAY – 21/10/19
Next Monday 21st October is a Student Free Day for all QLD State Schools. It is a very important day for all Ed Qld staff as it enables teachers and teacher aides across the state to participate in Professional Development and Moderation activities that help us to provide best practice and better outcomes for all our students.
Next Monday our teachers will be visiting Mt Samson and moderating Maths assessments with the teachers there. Teachers from both schools will share samples of A, B, C, D and E assessment tasks in order to make comparable judgements about student performance on individual assessments. This process will assist our teachers in the final moderation process where teachers will moderate a whole semester of work to assign a rating for the end of semester report.
Our staff will then be returning to school for sessions on NAPLAN Online 2020 Training and Inclusive Education. Our teacher aides will also be joining us for some of these sessions.
PREP OPEN MORNINGS
This term sees the start of our 2020 Prep Orientation visit and Prep Open mornings. See below for details. We encourage all our Prep parents and children for 2020 to take advantage of this valuable opportunity to visit our school and learn more about our Prep classrooms.
Thank you from Mrs Ryan
