Wow! Term 1 progresses rapidly and it continues to be a productive one for Havenview Primary School. Staff are busy preparing Individual Learning Plans and Term 1 progress reports, while I am currently in the process of developing Havenview Primary School’s Improvement Plan (SIP) for 2023/24. Every school’s SIP is developed from their Annual Review and 2022 data.

Our data suggests we will have 3 priorities for 2023:

1. Continue to develop our Professional Learning Teams that are focused on improving teaching practice and student learning outcomes.
2. Improving student reading.
3. Consolidating our inclusive practices and refining how we support all students to achieve their best at Havenview. This will include a continuance of the Zones of Regulation and Berry Street Education Model philosophy.

I continue to be impressed with the number and quality of Above and Beyond stars that are awarded in our school. In the last two weeks we have had numerous staff, students and community members nominating others for their efforts in helping to make our school and greater community a better place. Remember if you see a member of our school community going ‘above and beyond’ let the ladies in the office know – and we can acknowledge them in our Monday Morning Meetings and put their ‘Star’ on the wall with all the others.
