A very positive start!
It is wonderful to see everyone back at school and with so much energy and enthusiasm for the year ahead.
Sincere thanks to the Junior School and Middle School parents for attending the Parent Information Sessions last week. Your engagement and support are greatly appreciated as we look forward to a successful and productive school year.
I would also like to take this opportunity to congratulate the 2022 Year 12 Berwick students on their remarkable results. We are incredibly proud of your achievements, and we wish you all the very best for your future endeavours.
There are several upcoming social events this term that I encourage everyone to attend. These include morning teas at drop-off time, class dinners, the ELC Family Morning, the Annual Edrington Picnic, and the HPFE Summer Sippers evening.
These community events are an excellent opportunity to come together, build relationships and enjoy each other’s company.
School photos
School photo day is on Thursday, 16 February. All students are reminded to be in full summer uniform with neat and tidy hair which should be tied back if below the shoulder.
Early Learning Centre
Welcome to ELC 2023
This year is sure to be a year of great learning and fun and a time for many wonderful relationships to develop and create opportunities for our great community to connect. The first few weeks are such a crucial time and we want to ensure they are positive for all. This is why staff will spend this time focusing on observing and getting to know each child to build positive relationships with each child and family.
A friendly reminder for parents to please make sure that all of your child’s items are clearly labelled and that you have applied sunscreen before they arrive at school. It is also important that your child has adequate spare items in their bag such as uniform, socks and underwear.
