13.01.2022 Each year this week we acknowledge our School Administrative and Support Staff (SASS). I would like to thank our dedicated SASS team for all their efforts in 2020. Our team includes; Admin - Robyn, Dario and Kym SLSO - Morgan, Angela, Eli in the classrooms and Sandra in the garden GA - Mark... Whilst we often talk about the changes to teaching in 2020, please consider the many changes to the SASS environment as well. From an admin perspective, lots more work in understanding health conditions, monitoring sicknesses, attendance data of students and staff, recording virus testing, ensuring the supply hygiene products, awareness posters, procedures for community users and visitors to the site - just some of the many other changes. For our support staff, there has been increased workload due to the effects of the pandemic on families. It is also important to note that our SASS team did not really have a working remotely period in 2020 and have been on site essentially all year long. Again, my thanks and appreciation to our SASS team. Thank you for all your efforts in 2020, please know that it does not go unnoticed. Mr Ackerman Principal
