    PRINCIPAL’S REPORT

    Hello Swan Reach,

    What a delightful time families, students and staff enjoyed at last week’s Mid Murray Our Town (MMOT) Launch Event. The weather was wonderful and the organising through to the catering was superb. Fun, re-connecting after COVID-19 restrictions, connecting with the wider community and the colour run were definitely winners on the day; along with all who participated in a friendly and engaging manner – all aspects of our values: Care, Respect, Integrity, Participation and Success were demonstrated. Special thanks to the MMOT team and SRAS staff for their organisation, the 7-12 students for their amazing assistance and all community members who visited and joined in on the day. Well done SRAS community!

    WHOLE SCHOOL TRANSITION SESSIONS

    SRAS has planned three whole-school transition sessions that are outlined below:

    • Thursday 11th November – lessons 1 and 2 (8:45am -11am) – Principal’s Tour @ 9am
    • Thursday 18th November – lessons 3 and 4 (11:00am – 1:25pm)
    • Thursday 25th November – lessons 1 and 2 (8:45am -11am) – Principal’s Tour @ 9am and morning tea at 10:30am

    Students will be grouped into their probable (yet to be confirmed) classes to bond and have a glimpse of 2022 learning. We are looking forward working together to make their experience a rewarding one.

    You are invited to attend Principal’s Tours that will be conducted on the 11th and 25th of November. This is an opportunity for families to visit learning spaces, view teaching and learning and ask clarifying questions about education at SRAS. We look forward to seeing you.

    BUSHFIRE PROCEDURES ON CATASTROPHIC DAYS

    Whilst summer scorchers seem somewhat distant, this is a timely reminder of our bushfire procedures.

    On days where a Catastrophic Fire Danger rating is forecasted:

    • all school bus routes travelling through any affected Fire Ban District(s) will be cancelled
    • school will still be open and lessons will run as normal

    If the Fire Ban rating changes to ‘Catastrophic’ during the day:

    • school buses will operate as normal, unless advised otherwise by authorised Emergency Services personnel.

    If a bushfire is reported in the area during the day:

    • affected bus runs will not to leave the school until the roads are declared safe by emergency services authorities

    Parents will be notified and students will be supervised at school, until buses can run, or until parents are able to collect their children.

    Mr John Robertson

    Principal
