FROM THE PRINCIPAL:   Thank-you - I would like to thank the Wellington Point SS community for making my time as acting principal an enjoyable one. The relationship between students, staff and parents enable the school to provide a supportive environment in which each child’s learning needs are developed. I am sure that the incoming principal, Ms Margaret Lane, will continue to work with the community to make next year a rewarding one for all concerned. Enjoy the Christmas break and I wish you all the very best for 2012. Back to school in 2012 - Parents and carers are reminded that the first day of school for all state school students is Monday 23 January 2012. Changes to public holidays and student free days were recently announced by the state government. Starting in 2012, the changes include moving the Queen’s birthday holiday from June to the first Monday in October, and moving some student free days to create a two-week break at Easter. This means the 2012 Easter school holidays for students run from Monday 2 April to Friday 13 April. A one-off Queen’s Diamond Jubilee holiday will be held on Monday 11 June in 2012, and the Queen’s birthday holiday will be on Monday 1 October 2012.
