“Together we are safe, respectful learners working hard to achieve success”
Welcome back, Gunning Public
School!!! We have missed all of our
students and their families, and we
have had a wonderful first few days
back at school. I am so extremely
proud of all the hard work our staff
have put in, to make home learning
and the transition back to school in
the COVID-19 environment such a
success. Our teachers put an
incredible amount of hours into
ensuring that our students received
the best home learning experience
possible. Their passion and
professionalism has been amazing.
All of our staff have been putting in
extra hours to ensure our school is as
safe as possible and that our students
are well cared for. A big thankyou to;
Maree, Ang and Ash for their hard
work with administration and
organisation, to Dennis for ensuring
social distancing measures are in
place, and to Valda for all her extra
cleaning, keeping us all safe.
Thank you parents for your
thoughtfulness during this time and for
ensuring you are following our school
guidelines for social distancing, we
really appreciate this. We hope you
are getting a well-earned chance to
take a breath after your fabulous
home learning efforts.
If there are any changes to how your
child is getting home of an afternoon
this term, can you please inform our
office, this is to ensure we know
exactly where our students need to be
in order to get home safely.
We are collecting all items students
have been using for home learning, if
you have laptops at home can you
please return these to the office.
Students should now have brought
their learning packs back to school
and no longer have to carry these
back and forth. We still ask that all
students bring in their stationery
packs daily for learning at school, and
at the end of the term we will collect
all stationery items and return these to
our classroom supplies. We also ask
that students continue to bring water
bottles, with their names on them.
On Monday the 27th of July (week 2,
term 3) we will be having our school
photos, we know it has been a long
time since we sent home order forms
for school photos, if you have lost
your order form envelope please call
the office and let us know so we can
arrange a new one for you.
This semester, due to COVID-19,
student academic reports will be a
simplified, written report describing
student progress, achievement and
goals on the learning covered in
Semester 1. These reports will be
sent home week 1 of term 3 and will
be followed by a parent teacher
meeting to discuss student progress.
Finally, I would like to say a big thank
you to our P&C for their hard work
with looking into grants this year and a
big thank you to Lucy Knight for
submitting the latest two grant
applications for us. The P&C have
been successful in securing a grant of
$6939.50 for new school home
readers from the Acciona Gunning
Wind Farm from their Small Grants
Fund and Community Benefit Fund.
