I’m excited to welcome you all to the beginning of another school year. I hope everyone had a restful break and are ready to take on 2024. I am looking forward to working with a group of bright, energetic and unique students. 

The year has started pleasingly for the Year 9s, with them settling in well. I have had positive feedback from all teachers on their ability to focus, complete challenging tasks and being able to strive for success. I encourage students to reflect on their first few weeks back at school and see where they can make some improvements and set goals whether it is in or outside the classroom.

We have some exciting events coming up this year with the Swimming Carnival, Triple Challenges with Desi, Athletics Carnival and ending with the River Cruise. I will be using Connect to communicate any messages regarding these events and any other important information so please make sure you are checking regularly.

One area that has been of some concern already is ensuring all students adhere to the school uniform policy. I wish to remind parents and students of the uniform policy and that navy bottoms are the only acceptable colour. If, for any reason, there is an issue with following the policy please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you for your efforts in preparing your child for the beginning of the school year. It has been a positive start and I look forward to working together to ensure your child achieves their personal best. If you have any queries, questions or concerns please feel free to contact me. The best form of communication is email at Teagen.Smith@education.wa.edu.au.
