This Friday is National Walk Safely to School Day and Franklin Primary is participating in the event. Upon the completion of the walk and arrival at the school there will be a healthy breakfast available for the students. If there are any parents/carers who might be able to help with the breakfast prep, please get in touch with myself or the school – it would be greatly appreciated. We predict prep to start from around 8am.

If your child/ren would like to join the walk, please meet at the Franklin Oval from 815am with departure to the school at 830am. Unfortunately, this is for students only and no parents/carers may join the walk. There will be adequate supervision with teachers and volunteers also participating.

A reminder school photos are tomorrow. Orders can be placed online: https://leadingimage.com.au/order-school-photos/ Access Key: W3MT5Q94

Dear Parents and Carers

 As mentioned earlier we are experiencing some staffing challenges due to COVID. As a result of this we have made the decision to postpone the parent teacher phone calls scheduled for next week.  You will instead receive a progress report via post that indicates how you child has started the year. An opportunity to discuss your child’s progress will be provided once we return to school early next term. Please also note that due to the current situation it may not be possible to send all grades reports home at the same time and we will send these as soon as staff are able to complete them.  Thank you for your understanding.

Regards,
Michelle Nowak
Principal
