Welcome back to Term 2! Commencement of this term will mean different things for different families, as you will be choosing to either continue home schooling or to send your child to school. Please be assured that we will respect whatever your decision is. We continue to have your child's best interests at heart and will be sensitive to their needs and feelings.

Hello 5H families! We just thought we'd touch base with some brief messages before logging off for school holidays!  Firstly, thank you for all your efforts with home learning thus far.  We realise that everyone's "classrooms" at home will look completely different to each others!  We also understand that the amount of possible parental input will vary for each household as many of you continue to work at home (just like us!).  It is important to keep in mind that we are all working towards the one goal, which is to continue your child's learning journey.  We care about them and miss them and are only ever an email away!   Our plans and expectations for Term 2's home learning  will be communicated via a blog at the end of the holidays.   As always, you will be notified when it is posted via a text message.   So until then, enjoy spending time with each other.
