I cannot believe how quickly Term 1 has come and gone! Staff have worked so hard on refining explicit teaching practice in mathematics, participating in extensive professional learning, modelled lessons, observation of practice and feedback sessions. It has been truly inspiring to hear the rich discussions amongst staff and to see students so engaged in their learning.
I loved seeing so many family members attend our welcome picnic and open classrooms in Week 7. Visiting each classroom and seeing the interactive activities happening was a wonderful highlight!
Our Term concluded with cross country and a wonderful Easter Hat Parade and P&C Raffle.
As we move towards Term 2, I look forward to working with staff and families through the Self-Assessment and External Validation process to inform our next School Excellence Plan for 2026. We will also be looking towards the implementation of the Department’s new Student Report template at the end of the term.
On 25 April I will be attending the Clarence Town Anzac Day dawn service and look forward to marching with any students that are available to attend.
I would like to wish all students, staff and families a lovely Easter break. Students return for Term 2 on Wed 30 April.

REMINDER: Road Safety Around Clarence Town Public School
Transport for NSW defines Children’s Crossings as a part time pedestrian crossing used before and after school.
When in use, orange flags display the words CHILDREN CROSSING. Drivers must slow down and stop before the line when a pedestrian is on the crossing or waiting to cross. The driver must remain stopped until all pedestrians leave the crossing. Children’s crossings may operate at other times that local Councils approve. Aside from these times, the area is not a pedestrian crossing.
