Principals Message
The most special thing about the 1st Term was the way parents came together to accomplish a goal. As a Team, we recognized that we will have to do things differently if we want to give our children the best. While we all know that data is the driving force for identifying where the strengths, weaknesses and gaps exist, we also know that the essential element for a change is the implementation of the plan conceived by using that data. That clarity the collective realization that we cannot do things the way we have always done them, was one of the highlights of the 1st Term. Parent Conferences, Coffee Mornings, etc., have turned out fruitful with parents participating actively in the meeting. I appreciate those parents for sparing their valuable time and working with us to bring a change and make a difference. Open communication between home and school between parents & teachers can only help the kids in the classroom. Students who know that parents and teachers communicate are more likely to communicate too. Any activity that involves parents enhances ownership in the education process and directly contributes to the achievement of children. Openness and good communication are essential elements to a positive learning environment. Once again, I would like to thank parents who have assisted in Fee Collection and hoping that the outstanding fees are cleared. Thank you for being a part of The Westminster Family!!
