The team is especially excited to welcome some new faces into the classroom spaces. Alongside the new students, Rachael Barr is joining as the new Team Leader and will be co-teaching in Room 16.

BSLA (Better Start Literacy Approach): Within ongoing phonics and reading groups, each student is supported according to their individual needs. Phonics will remain a core focus to strengthen the foundations of reading and writing.

Keeping Ourselves Safe: This unit will be taught across Weeks 3 - 6 of Term 3.
