I am sure families are aware of the significant shortage of teachers and casual teachers facing all our education systems. We are endeavouring to find staff when teachers are unwell or attending Professional Development sessions, but this is not always possible. At times classes may have to be collapsed, meaning students are provided with class work and sent in small groups to other classrooms for the day. While this is not an ideal learning environment, it may be the only option available and will be a last resort action. Please be assured your child will still be well cared for during the day and lessons are well prepared to ensure continuity of learning.
