Parent Support

​

The single most significant factor in educational success is support and encouragement from home.

​

Co-operation between home and school is vital and the High School stresses the importance of communication between staff and parents or caregivers.

​

Parents are welcome at the school and we are pleased to meet with anyone regarding their child's welfare and progress.

​

Phoning for an appointment will ensure that the person you wish to see is available.

​

Parents are encouraged to attend report evenings, and any other meetings which are appropriate for parents and students.

​

We are always in need of coaches, managers, and support for our school teams.

​

Parents are encouraged to attend sports days, major productions, performances and evening meetings.

​

 

The Home and School Association

​

The Home and School Association provides an important service in fostering co-operation between staff and parents for the betterment of students' education.

​

Approximately six general meetings are held each year. All parents are invited to become members. Parents may also stand for election to our Board of Trustees.

​

We encourage parents to support our students in what they do and appreciate feedback on how we are doing.

​

Parents can help by supporting our fund raising ventures, as these are important to help us provide equipment and amenities for our students.

​

The school requires students to conduct themselves in such a way as to bring credit on themselves, their families and the High School.
