Dear Parents and Carers,

As Term 2 comes to a conclusion, I would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge and congratulate the students of Good Samaritan for their dedication, growth, and the positive learning culture they have helped create throughout Semester One. It is my absolute pleasure to visit classrooms and witness strong routines in place and the growth children are having in their learning.

Semester One reports have now been distributed, and they highlight the significant progress many students have made across a range of learning areas. These reports reflect the efforts of our students, the guidance of our dedicated teaching staff, and the continued support of our families. 

This term we also welcomed the opportunity for parents and carers to meet with class teachers during our parent-teacher conferences. These conversations are so valuable and they provide a chance to hear about your child’s learning progress and identify areas for future growth. For many families, this was also a time to engage in a three-way conference, where your child joined the discussion and shared their reflections on their own learning journey. These moments build confidence and help our students take ownership of their learning.

As always, if you ever need to speak with your child’s teacher or a member of the school leadership team, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We value open and ongoing communication and know that strong partnerships between home and school are key to student success.

As we head into the school holiday break, I have encouraged the staff and students to take time to rest, recharge, and reflect on their achievements of the first half of the year. We look forward to welcoming students back in Term 3, on Tuesday 22nd July, ready to continue their learning journey with renewed energy and enthusiasm.

Sincerely

Pauline Chrostowski - Principal
