Principal’s Address

2024 School Year 

December 2024

Dear Parents and Carers,

Celebrating Success

I am delighted to share the exciting news that our school was one of the 25 WA schools that made the list of high-performers based on NAPLAN results. I was interviewed by the writer Bethany Hiatt from the West Australian last Friday.  Campbell Primary School’s ranking is based on our NAPLAN results over the past two years. This success is a testament to the hard work of our educators and the strong collective responsibility we share for our students’ achievements. I am incredibly proud of both our students and educators. We are fortunate to have such a positive school culture, where the hearts and minds of all are nurtured and to see this translate into the results we achieve.

I have attached the copy of this news article to the address for your perusal.

As we approach the end of the school year, I would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank you, our dedicated parents and carers for your unwavering support of the school and your children’s education. This year has concluded with a variety of wonderful celebrations, including the Year 6 Graduation, Pre-primary to Year 5 Book Awards, Kindergarten Christmas Concerts, and much more. It has been an absolute pleasure to be part of these end-of-year events.

The 2024 school year has once again been a highly successful one, with students receiving excellent support in reaching both their academic and social potential. Our students are to be applauded for their efforts. I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to all staff for their exceptional dedication to their roles. A special thank you also goes to Mrs. Slee and Mr. Bradshaw for their valuable work and ongoing support throughout the year.

To the families who are leaving Campbell this week, whether for secondary school or another school, thank you for your support during your time with us. We wish you and your child every success as you embark on the next stage of your journey.

To our Year 6 students: It has been a pleasure to watch you grow over the years at Campbell Primary School. You are a wonderful group of young people, and I wish you all the best as you move forward.

I hope everyone enjoys a special holiday season filled with time with family and friends. May it be a relaxing and rejuvenating break. I am eagerly looking forward to 2025, a year I’m confident will be both productive and exciting for our staff, students, and the entire school community.

Reporting to Parents

I hope all parents and carers have had the opportunity to view their child’s school report. There is much to celebrate, and discussing your child’s successes together is a great way to support them as they return to school.

Staffing for 2025

Please note that Mrs. Clare Baker will not be joining us in 2025. I would like to thank Mrs. Baker for her contributions to our students’ education and wish her all the best for the future.

Advice of Student’s Class and Teacher for 2025

On Monday, 3 February, after 1:00 pm, parents will receive an email advising them of their child’s class and teacher for 2025. Parents are kindly asked to ensure that their email addresses are up-to-date to receive this information.

Hard copies of the class list will also be displayed in the undercover area on Tuesday morning, 4 February 2025.

Open Classrooms Before School Starts

For 2025, we will trial a “Meet and Greet” 1 hour session, where you and your child can visit the school to meet the teacher and drop off stationery and books. This will be available to parents on Tuesday 4 February before the students return. Information regarding the time will be sent out before the end of term.

Wishing you all a wonderful end to the year and looking forward to an exciting 2025!

Kind regards,
Lynne Bates
