I was heartened to hear Minister for Education, James Merlino say that he is confident that Victorian students will return to the classroom in Term 4, based on the downward trend in community transmission of COVID-19 under stage 4 restrictions.
We will wait for further advice from the Chief Health Officer and will share with you any information or updates from DET.
In the meantime, we continue with our remote learning program for the remainder of this term. We thank you for all that you are doing to support our teachers so that they can support your children during this time. We are looking forward to discussing their learning with you at the parent teacher meetings on Thursday the 10th of September, so please book a time before the system closes at 12pm on Wednesday the 9th of September. Please note that there will not be any check ins- check outs, live lessons or small group classes on this day. Your children are welcome to attend this meeting if you would like them to contribute to the conversation.
2021 Planning
Please advise us as soon as possible if you know your child will not be attending Ivanhoe East Primary School next year. This information will assist us with our planning for 2021.
