Term 1 Handbook and Overview of Learning

An important document was sent via Compass notification on Tuesday this week. We request parents and carers to please take the time to check you are familiar with all our processes

• We have shared with parents an overview of learning content for the term. If you have a particular skill or knowledge in one of the learning units a class is exploring this term, please reach out. You might bring an amazing addition to a lesson plan.
• We regularly welcome parents, carers and grandparents to help in the classroom. We really need helpers at our events eg: breakfasts and carnivals. We are governed by CECG policies and the ACT WWVP scheme when welcoming adults to help at school to safeguard our vulnerable persons. We have written a guide for parents to summarise the WWVP requirements. It is linked on our website ‘Safeguarding Processes and WWVP at Sacred Heart’. https://shpspearce.schoolzineplus.com/_file/media/7489/safeguarding_and_wwvp.pdf)
• BYOD Apps for Years 3-6. Please see the list of Apps to install on your child’s iPad on p13-14 of the overview document.

Call for helpers

Lost Property. We need a person or two to help us manage the lost property pile. This would involve a short time every week or two spent going through the items, putting aside ones that have current student names and keeping the cupboard tidy.

Container 10c Recycling. We would love a family or two to work with our sustainability students to deliver bags of containers to the recycling centre in Phillip every fortnight.

If either of these tasks sounds like something you could support us with, please contact me.

Yours in working together
