Calendar of Events and Report Cards

Submitted by Admin (06-11-2012)

Hello
We are a new private school, and finding it hard to get information that state schools receive, I have 2 questions.....please...

1. Where can I find out a yearly calendar of things happening during the year, eg. naidoc week, ramadhan, harmony day, under 8s week, etc etc? I have googled my life away and can't find one place that has all these important events, can anyone help me out.

2. Also, where can we find examples of report cards. As a new school we would like to get a few different ones and eventually make our own, but state schools are hesitant to share.

Thanks

Go to the DET NSW website. You can go to the parents sections and view anything you want on there. I 'google' and quite often you will get Education websites from all over Australia. Google "school reports" I bet you will get a few hits. Also I was looking for events for a unit on Celebrations and I just googled them. The DET NSW has information for parents on events you should be able to get onto.

Calendar of events

Hi,
I'm not sure where you school is, but check out these 2 sites for commonly recognised events in Australia.
The first one is a community based site and hte second is a Commonwealth GOvernment site.

Good luck,

Pretty sure the Decs (Decd) website has a calendar of events.
Otherwise the AEU puts out a calendar with many events marked on it.

Reports are all changing at the moment with the requirements to report on Nat Curric. Most schools are in limbo as to what the report will look like. Most schools are hoping someone else will do it and share their version! Again, I think there are samples on the DECS website.

  • I saw an interesting post on Pinterest the other day, showing a plastic, sandwich size, zip-lock bag that had had a piece of duct tape run along the base. The duct tape provided reinforcing that allowed holes to be punched through the bag for storage in a binder. I imagine you could run the tape down the side of larger zip-lock bags for a similar effect. This may not solve all your storage issues, but if there\'s just a few small games to go with a unit that\'s otherwise stored in a binder, it might help!

  • I was just thinking the other day that I needed some matching cards for numbers over 100 then today I came across the new parts of speech posters and thought I\'d check out the \"What\'s New\" section and there I found exactly what I had been wanting. Thank you so much for your wonderful resources. This is the first place I check when looking for resources and I\'ve been able to build a great collection since moving to the lower school grades last year. Thanks again!
