Farewell Mrs Young – Happy retirement!

There once was a lady named Ann

who kept Forest Primary going to plan

Scones, slices and fabulous eats

Bills, invoices and chasing receipts

Now puzzling and travelling cause she can.

Now, Mrs Young the office will never be the same without your smiling face and you will always be a part of our Forest Primary family. Thank you for everything you have given to this school, and we wish you well as you enter the next chapter of your life.

Communication of Learning - Parent Teacher Week 8

This term, we will share our evidence of learning and SARIS ratings with families at a parent/teacher meeting during Week 8. We know that sharing learning progress more regularly supports the development of strong partnerships and helps families feel connected to their child’s learning.

Evidence of learning is defined as a work sample or observation and its associated feedback. The feedback is connected to the success criteria (aligned to the achievement standards or learning plan goals) and includes what’s been achieved and the next step/s in learning.

Evidence of learning is an ongoing and integral part of quality teaching. It may address one or more learning areas.

You will be provided with Mathematics, English and Science Evidences of learning which is a ‘snapshot’ or one piece of evidence that has been collected with feedback provided.

We have decided to share these evidence of learning and SARIS ratings with families who attend parent teacher.  We will post uncollected Evidences of learning and SARIS reports in Week 10.   It is important that you make an appointment to attend parent teacher meetings so that you receive your child’s report and have an opportunity to discuss your child’s education.
