Principal's Message Welcome to Week 2! In my newsletter last week, I announced that one of our long standing teachers was retiring on Friday 1 November. I was fortunate enough this week to spend some quality time with Michael Boreham and asked a number of questions about his career, memories and advice for young people in the future. Here is my interview. Anti Bullying Plan Feedback Campus Principals must ensure that their campus implements an anti-bullying plan that is developed collaboratively with students, school staff, parents, caregivers, and the community, and is reviewed every three years. The current anti-bullying plan was developed in 2017 and expires in 2020. The next parent lounge at Port Macquarie Campus has been schedule for Thursday 7 November. Two sessions will be available for parents at 8.30 am and 5 pm. The agenda will discuss the progress with the Mobile Phone Policy, Curriculum programs across the year groups and feedback on the Anti-Bullying Policy.
