Parent Watching Days

Parents and friends will be invited to watch classes on designated days usually when students are working toward an exam. These classes are designed for you to see the progress of your child or the development of the levels throughout the school. Aside from watching days, parents are not permitted to watch classes as it is distracting for both the teacher and students. Please also refrain from speaking with the teacher between classes as this takes time out of the following lesson. Direct any enquiries to the principal between 9.00am and 3.00pm.
