EXPLORING OUTSIDE SCHOOL HOURS CARE (OSHC) AT WAYI SCHOOL

At Wayi School, we are committed to supporting our families and understand the importance of OSHC in your daily routines. As our school continues to grow, so does the demand for OSHC services. In 2024, we joined the High Intensiity OSHC Initiative, which allows us to offer highly specialised care for our students with no additional cost to families. However, to accommodate this, it has become necessary to review the before school care service due to its expense and impact on after school care availability.
In December 2024, the School Council endorsed a review of our OSHC services, with a possibility of phasing out before school care to create more availability for after school care. We fully intend to have discussions with all families currently accessing before school care to understand their needs before any adjustments are made.
Thank you for your continued support as we work towards improving our OSHC services for all our families. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

NO SCHOOL THIS FRIDAY & NEXT MONDAY

There will be no school for Wayi Students this Friday the 7th of March & Next Monday the 10th of March.

The Department and School Council has approved a Curriculum Day for this Friday, March 7th. This will be a Student Free Day for Wayi students.

Wayi School will be closed next Monday, March 10th, for the Labour Day Public Holiday.

CLASS IN FOCUS

ROOMS 3 & 4

Room 3

In Term 1, our focus is on phonics. Students have participated in sensory and hands-on activities to explore phonics. They have learned about letters and their corresponding sounds.

Room 4

In Room 4, this term our focus is on reading and viewing, emphasizing Phonics and word knowledge. Students have been engaging in activities, that include identifying the beginning sound of their name, matching a sound to an image, and matching a letter to a sound. As we are learning through the term, it is great to see room 4 students responding well to class routines and structure, including the transition to outside play, welcome circle routine, and of course the end-of-day routine. Keep up the great work Room 4.
