Reading - Language Skill Development

Preparing students to learn to read comes first from learning to speak and listen. We are using Promoting Literacy Development (PLD) to explicitly teach and track core language skills. A series of videos unpack early literacy skills explained by PLD.

To better understand how learning to read works, we are using a model called "Scarborough's Rope".

Join us as we look at each "strand" of rope and engage students in improving each skill one strand at a time.

Winter Uniform

Our students have been fantastic at wearing their uniforms with pride. Please continue to ensure that caps are not worn to school. As the months get colder, please ensure that our jumpers and jackets remain in line with our school uniform policy.

Our students are amazing! Daily they proudly represent their families proudly making great choices. We want to show just how wonderful student behaviour is in a graphic. This graphic shows the % of students within the week shown who's choices never once needed a correction or consequence! This is fantastic! Our goal is 100% each week. As the term has settled, we are seeing a reduction in incidents and positive choices for all our students. Go team DBay!
