Message from the Principal
THE TWENTY-TWO WEEK TERM What a Semester One we’ve had; with the shutdown and subsequent restrictions linked to COVID-19, as our Director General of Education said, it feels like we have had a monster Twenty-Two Week school term! I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the Teachers, EAs, School Support Staff, Gardeners and Cleaners who have kept our school open and safe. A special thanks goes to our Cleaning Team who have done so much every day. We are indeed fortunate to have such committed and caring individuals working with our students on a daily basis. Thank you to our students for the way they have adapted to changing situations, and not just surviving, but thriving with the added responsibility and independence expected of them in these times. I once again would like to thank all the parents and carers of Huntingdale Primary School students for your ongoing understanding and unwavering support of our efforts to maintain continuity in your children’s education through a uniquely difficult set of circumstances. Thanks also to our School Council and P&C Association for their support and co-operation. I am acutely aware how fortunate I am to be Principal of Huntingdale Primary School. I also wish to acknowledge the solid work of Mrs Julian in her role as Acting Principal and Miss Hind as Assistant Principal when I was seconded into the Education Department COVID 19 Support Team at a time when things were changing quickly and continually. During these difficult times our school community has done so well. COMMUNICATION SURVEY Thank you to the 112 respondents so far…yes, still time to have your say.
