Literacy Parent Information Night

Last Wednesday night, our school hall was buzzing with over 200 parents and a horde of teachers from every grade. We were gathered with one purpose; to discuss how literacy is taught at Artarmon Public School and to present ways that parents can support their child’s development of literacy skills.

Our staff shared their passion for teaching literacy through presentations or by sharing activities and ideas that parents could carry out at home. Many of these activities and ideas will be shared shortly on our school website, so watch this space!

Thank you to all teachers who gave up their time to plan, prepare and present and to all parents who attended! It’s clear from parents’ feedback below that it was a fantastic evening.

If you enjoyed the evening, we would love it if you could join us again next Wednesday for the Numeracy Parent Information Evening.

“First time to attend this kind of session. I am very happy with the presentation. It is very informative.”

“I felt the night was very useful. I found the Kindergarten session very helpful and interactive.”

“Sometimes new parents are clueless on how to help but sessions like this are very useful.”

“Being able to interact with the teachers and understand the tools they use to teach literacy, so we can better understand and help as parents.”

“It was fantastic. I just want to say a huge thank you.”

“It was run really well and we really appreciate the time and effort the staff have put into running the event - thank you.”

“Thanks very much for all the teachers for your dedication! We really appreciate it!"
