We are excited to welcome you to our Elementary School's Family-Teacher-Student Conferences scheduled for September 27. These early conferences will help us establish positive relationships with both you and your child, setting a supportive tone for the school year. Through discussion, we hope to learn more about your child and how we can support them.
Developing positive social connections and emotional wellness in every student is foundational for academic growth. While academic progress will not be a focus of the discussion so early in the year, we can discuss any academic concerns or goals for the year ahead.
One of the pillars of the Primary Years Program is student agency, which gives students voice in their learning. We believe in empowering our young students to actively participate in their education.
During the conference, we will encourage your child to share their interests and reflections on their learning. This not only fosters a sense of ownership, but also helps them develop valuable self-awareness and communication skills. Together, we'll work towards a more engaged and motivated student.
Conference Date: Wednesday, September 27, from 9:00am to 6:00pm
Conference Registration: The booking system (Conference Manager)
Please Note: The Student Conference booking system will reopen the platform again Tuesday, September 19, at 9:00am.
