TERM 1 WEEK 11 Tuesday 7th April 2020
Principal’s Report The Easter break is almost upon us to officially begin the
Term 1 holiday break. It has certainly been a challenging
time for students, parents and staff, but we have persevered
and I am proud to be Principal of the nurturing and resilient
school community here at Macksville Public School.
Despite the disappointments of cancelling our traditional
gatherings around Easter celebrations and assemblies, our
community is facing this together and with resourceful
planning, we will prevail.
I will take this opportunity to let you know we have to farewell
two of our staff members. Mrs Annie Bradley who taught
across all stages here has transferred to the Macleay Valley,
and we wish her all the best in her new position in the future. Also leaving us is Ms Kris De Jong, our
wonderful school counsellor, who has taken up a position in the Coffs area. Kris has been a most
valued member of our school community and will be greatly missed by students and staff. Next term,
we will welcome Dr Tara Kocek into MPS as our new school counsellor.
While we are unsure what the next couple of weeks may bring, at this stage I can inform you that
there will be no change to our school’s operation at the beginning of Term 2 2020. That is:
• We will continue to provide online learning for all our students;
• Our doors will remain open for the children of essential services personnel;
• We will continue to encourage parents who are non-essential services employees to keep their
children at home if possible, to alleviate the risk of COVID-19 infection to our staff and the students
who are, by necessity, at school. However, if these children must come to school, they will be warmly
welcomed. School will resume on Tuesday April 28th, 2020.
• Students who attend school will be supported to engage with the same online learning as students
who are not at school;
Staff will seek to make contact with all students each
week, to check on their progress and wellbeing.
Should there be any change to the way our school will
operate at the commencement of Term 2, I will make
contact with you prior to April 27th, 2020 via our school
website and our School Facebook page. If you have any
questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact
me on 6568 1800.
Wishing you a safe, healthy and relaxing school holiday
break.
~ Principal - Anthony Buckley
