I am currently in Lake Cargellico at the Western Region Principal's Meeting. Networking is extremley valueable and I thank Beck Cooper for leading in my absence.

ASSESSMENT AND REPORTING

On Monday 21 June your child's report will be sent home. This is the last time parents will receive a paper copy of the report. All schools in Catholic Educaiton Canberra Goulburn are using the platform Compass, which you would have read about in previous newsletters. This platform will push out student reports in Semester 2. As well, it will offer a platform to book parent teacher interviews. Further communication will come through the newsletter.

There will be no comments on student's reports this Semester, as previously reported in the newsletter. As a result of this, parent teacher interviews are particularly important. Classroom teachers are making every effort to meet with you to discuss next steps in your child's learning. Please support your child's learning by meeting with teachers. The waiting room for the interviews are 

K-Year 2 parents please wait in the Kinder class space at the end of the classroom. Please enter at the stairs at the far entrance to the classrooom.

Year 3-4 parents please wait in the library.

Year 5-6 parents please wait in the library.

A master sheet of times will be displayed in the waiting room, please keep to your time.

If you would like to pop passed my office on the way in or the way out, you are very welcome.

PARISHIONERS

A number of weeks ago we offered a training session for parishoners to support us in the Reinforced Reading Program. We have been lucky enough to have Geoff Orchison and Nettie Donnelly join TEAM TRINITY. Both Geoff and Nettie have been reading with students on a regular basis and both have commented on how much they enjoy the program, and how much improvement they have seen with this program in such as short space of time. If you are a parent, parishoner, grandparent or community member who would like to join TEAM TRINITY. please contact me caz.perryman@cg.catholic.edu.au and we will have you trained up in no time.

SQUIZ KIDS

 You may have heard your children talking about Squiz Kids. Squiz Kids is a media POD cast that engages primary school students in current affairs and critical media literacy. At Trinity we do like to be on the cutting edge of education and of course we are. Trinity will be a pilot school for the extension of Squiz Kids next term. The producer of the program Amanda Bower has approached our school, after Penny Lucas engaged in evaluating the program and fedback wonderings and possibilities and work will begin with year three to six next term. The program is curriculum driven, student centred and has high student engagement. At today's Open House special guest from Squiz Kids Bryce Corbett attended and spoke to the children about the reason why he created Squiz Kids.

We continue to keep the Albert and Johnson families in our prayers as they continue to re-build. Please join us for our "It all started with a Lemonade Stand Day" on Tuesday 21 June.

Peace be with you.
