Across the Principal's Desk
The sun is shining, and our students’ learning progressions are evident right across our school. Next Tuesday 25th March, teachers will provide parents with an opportunity to share student growth, both academic progress and personal and social capabilities. These parent teacher interviews are now nicely backed up by Windsor’s Show and Shine afternoon to be held on Monday 31st March. Our Show and Shine initiative opens classrooms and allows children to share and talk about their own learning with a parent or trusted adult. The excitement across our school on this afternoon is wonderful to watch.

Harmony at Windsor
Harmony Week presents an opportunity to teach our children about global citizenship. Our annual whole school parade was brough to life by our students, who confidently shared their stories in front of a large school community audience. The importance of listening and learning about others is our message to students as they grown into an ever-changing world. The theme, Everyone Belongs continues. Please enjoy more photos within the newsletter.
ANZAC Day
The Windsor SS commemoration is always a very special event. Weather permitting, this outdoor school service held on ANZAC Terrace (upper oval) highlights the significance of the day to our students. Any families who do, or have worked in Defence, are invited to contact the school, so that we may acknowledge you. During our service there will be an opportunity for families and community members to lay their own wreath should they wish. We will gather at 9am on Thursday the 24th of April. Thank you to Adam Tull and our sustainability gardening students for adding some Rosemary plants to prepare and enhance our cenotaph. Although its location has changed over the years, this statue is 100 years old this year!
Lutwyche Road Drop off Zone
We are almost there! The weather is keeping us on our toes as the last few days of work continue. We have an official opening date of next Tuesday 25th March. We will also have early access to car parks this coming weekend, if the rain stays away.
Below is a map (you may need to squint to read it) that helps show the flow for traffic from Constitution Road through to Lutwyche Road. It also clearly shows the only entry and exit point for students into our school from this drop off area.
The last two weeks of term one offer many opportunities to come together. I look forward to seeing you at our discos tonight or community Colour Run on Saturday.
Yours in Education
Shona
