Weekly Parent BulletinWEEK OF 13 January 2025 (WEEK B TIMETABLE)

Dear Parents and Carers, 

What a cold first week back! Whilst we have only been able to provide cold food in the canteen, the building has still been lovely and warm and students have absolutely been the best versions of themselves. Many staff have commented to me about how great it has been to reconnect with students and continue the curriculum learning journeys. 

A special thanks to all Year 7 parents and carers for attending the Parent Meetings event. It was lovely to have you all in the building and I hope you found the feedback from our staff helpful. 

A few quick notices in this bulletin and we hope you have a great weekend. 

Very best wishes,

Joel Tomasevic - Senior Leader for Communications and Parent Involvement
