I just wanted to express my appreciation to all of those parents who responded to our Parent Satisfaction Survey last term. As I myself am not a person who loves filling in surveys, I was extremely grateful with the response rate from parents. We have 354 families at school and we re- ceived 264 parent responses. Even though this figure will include families where both parents responded, it certainly gives us a good representa- tion of the level of parent satisfaction within our school community. At some point in the future, key staff and Board members will analyse the substantial information collected, and use it to direct aspects of our way forward as a school.
We have included a snapshot of the parent responses in graphical form below. We are delighted with the results and as parents you too should be very proud of the wonderful culture you contribute so strongly to in our school. You will notice that we were rated Excellent in every area.
Staff Surveys and Student Surveys also returned an Excellent rating across all five areas.

18 August 2017 Our school community should be very proud of our students for their participation, enthusiasm and sportsmanship that was displayed across all age groups at our Junior and Senior Athletics Carnivals last term.
