Parent / Teacher Interviews Dates are notified on the Community Calendar as well on the Story Park Community Page for Preschool – Year 6, and in the Weekly Bulletin. Parents are welcome to exchange short messages with the teacher when they bring their child to School in the morning and afternoon. However, this is not a good time to have an involved discussion about your child’s progress. If you wish to discuss matters concerning your child which require more time, it is better to set up an appointment. This can be done by leaving a phone or email message for the teacher concerned. Preschool Preschool Parent/Teacher interviews are held in Terms One, Two and Four and there are also Student Led Conferences (3‒5 year olds only) in Term Three, although parents are welcome to contact Preschool teachers at any time. Years 1–6 Interviews are held four times a year. The Well-Being Interview in early Term One is around student welfare, Term Two is a Progress Interview, Term Three is the Student Led Conference and the last Parent Teacher Progress Interview is held early in Term Four. Bookings are made online through the Parent Portal. Years 7–13 Parents are able to attend formal Parent Teacher Interviews in Term One and again in the middle of the year. If you are unable to attend on the advertised date, please contact staff through the communication channels outlined in this Handbook. Bookings are made online through the Parent Portal.
