NAPLAN

NAPLAN student reports have been sent out this week for all year 9 students. Whilst we acknowledge they are a point in time measure of students’ ability and there can be a variety of factors that impact on a student’s results please take the time to look at them. If you have any queries or concerns please do not hesitate to contact your child’s teachers to discuss their results.

FUN RUN

Next Friday is our annual School Fun Run, which will be held at Bundaleer this year. We will then return to school for a BBQ followed by the Colour Run. The Colour Run is a fundraiser for the school and we encourage students and families to support this as much as possible.

Reports

School Reports will be going home next Tuesday. These reports include written comments and often recommendations for improvement. Again we encourage you to discuss these with your students and contact subject teachers for further discussion if desired. Where teachers have requested an interview please contact the school to organise a time to have a conversation with the appropriate teacher.

Mobile Phone policy

At the recent Governing Council meeting the “Secondary student use of mobile phones and personal devices” policy was ratified.  It can be found at https://gladstonehs.sa.edu.au/_file/media/1600/ghs_mobile_phone_policy_2021.pdf

Landscaping

The Amphitheatre garden area is starting to take shape with a huge thank you to Gavin Hodgson, Levi and Lachie Hansen for levelling the area and taking away the topsoil ready for composting the area.
