For some, the end of the school year ...is also the end of an era. 2021 is the year to take #TheNextStep. Whether your child is starting kindergarten, high school, or college next year, there are some changes ahead. This week, we're launching a series of weekly tips to help make this transition time easier for your child and your family. The #ReadyForSchool posts are colour-coded: green circle for kinder kiddos, orange circle for high school, and blue for college. #ReadyForSchool #TheNextStep #TasGovEducation #LearnersFirst

09.01.2022 School reports - whether they're proudly shared, hidden away, or find a home in the bottom of a school bag - are really important for showing you how your child... is progressing at school. We're undertaking a review of how we process and deliver student reports and we want your input! Would you prefer to receive reports online? Would you like more frequent feedback? Less frequent feedback? We'd love to know. The 'Review into Reporting to Families' will provide recommendations for our reporting system so that it continues to meet the needs of learners, families and schools in the most meaningful ways. Parents and carers can have their say by completing the survey before 13 November at http://ow.ly/oVaN50BQKlg For more information about the review visit https://www.education.tas.gov.au//review-into-reporting-t/

Everyone will be seated on chairs and socially distanced. Seats cannot be moved. We previously advertised that students could buy $10 tickets and sit on the floor but as it takes place in the evening, we are not able to count students differently to adults. With such limited capacity, we kindly request that people only book for one show, allowing everyone a fair chance to see it.

03.01.2022 Is your child starting high school next year? It’s understandable that your child may be nervous about starting high school (they may also be really excited!).... It can be useful for them to know you’re available to chat. Ask them how they feel about starting high school and reassure them that it’s ok to be nervous. If your child needs some extra reassurance or support, contact their home group teacher as early into the new school year as possible. #ReadyForSchool #TheNextStep #TasGovEducation #LearnersFirst
