Roar 7

An invitation for our parents to ‘ROAR’ again for the last time in this academic year!

 家校一心铸狮魂

百年精心育杰人

Our goal is to make KGV an even better school for the students and community that we serve. We believe that parent feedback is a great way to help us prioritise and improve upon the issues that matter. After our successful previous ROAR events, we are looking to host our next session on Saturday 15th June from 9.30am to 11.30am in the Learning Resource Centre at KGV School.

ROAR stands for ‘Reach Out, Appreciate, Respond’ in terms of:

  • Reach Out – to our parent community to build connections and seek ideas
  • Appreciate – and celebrate what great things are already happening and how together, we can add value
  • Respond – to the ideas we generate with action and outcomes

The focus of ROAR 7 will be to:

  1. Introduce to our parents on our new Response to Intervention framework (RTI). RTI is a multi-tier approach to the early identification and support of students who need support or extension to ensure learning progress. The RTI process begins with high quality teaching in every classroom with a focus on formative assessment and knowing where every student is at with their learning. Student who are still not making progress then receive addition support programs and time to ensure they achieve at high levels.
  2. Update parents on our new Digital Devices policy and Positive Behaviour for Learning policy.
  3. These policies have been revised from student, staff and parent feedback. We want to explain the key elements of these policies and the implications for next academic year.
  4. Share the results from the recent parent survey regarding our school.
  5. Update parents on our plans for a Winter Carnival and seek ideas on how to make this a remarkable community event.

We are looking forward to hearing our parent voice ‘ROAR’ again on Saturday 15th June from 9.30am to 11.30am. Light refreshments will be provided at the event.
