Parent Consultation Session – Saturday and Monday

Parent Consultation Session – Saturday and Monday

As you may be aware, when ÌÇÐÄvlogÆƽâ°æ College commenced in 2009, we had a different day structure from most schools. The College commenced earlier in the day and finished earlier in the day. Learning from the many benefits that we found with this structure, we would like to begin a consultation process with the College community to assess the appetite for a change to our current day structure. In addition, this consultation will also include considerations in relation to an alternate school calendar (also around an earlier start and finish to the year with a break in Ramadan).

The College has now become a significant community of over 940 students, 500 families and 125 staff. We understand that any changes to the school day and / or school year may have a significant impact on community members. For this reason, we will be consulting with all the key stakeholders including parents, staff and students.

The consultation with staff has already commenced. We are now commencing the consultation process with parents. This will involve:

  • Step 1: Information / Consultation Sessions
  • Step 2: Parent Surveys
  • Step 3: Communication of Results

You are all invited to attend one of the following Information Sessions to learn more about the proposals being considered.

  • Saturday, 28 July – 9:30am : TEAMS Building
  • Monday, 30 July – 2:30pm : Assembly Room
  • Monday, 30 July – 6:15pm : TEAMS Building

I understand that these sessions are at short notice. Further sessions can be scheduled for Thursday (2:30pm or evening if needed). Email info@alsiraat.vic.edu.au (please don’t call) to register your interest for a session on Thursday (please mention afternoon or evening in your email).

A Parent Survey will be sent out to all parents following the Information Sessions.

I look forward to meeting in one of these sessions.
