Principal's Message - Meaghan Cook
This year has taught us the value of reflection, evaluation and adjustment and I must congratulate our students, teachers and our parents for working closely with the campus to implement COVID-19 changes, keeping connected through the parent portal, our newsletters, Facebook and our website.
We continue to hold our assemblies virtually and it has highlighted the innovation, resilience and dedication of our students in embracing these technology changes.

Tell Them from me Student Survey
Parent FAQ document for the student survey:
Hastings Secondary School, Port Macquarie Campus is delighted this term, that our school like many other public schools in the state, will participate in a Department of Education initiative: the Tell Them From Me student feedback survey. The survey measures factors that are known to affect academic achievement and other student outcomes. The focus of the NSW-wide survey is on student wellbeing, engagement and effective teaching practices.

Girls' and Boys' School Trackpants are now available
Girls and boys school trackpants have arrived at Port Macquarie Campus. They are available from the front office at a cost of $40.00 a pair.
Parent-Teacher Conferences
Parent-teacher interviews provide an important opportunity to discuss your child’s progress with their teachers. This year as a result of COVID-19 we will be asking parents to provide an expression of interest to request a phone interview with your child's teachers rather than face-to-face parent/teacher conference.
The process will happen exactly the same way as face-to-face but over the phone. Each interview is 5 minutes. Forms need to be completed by Sunday 30 August
COAL Scores have been forwarded to parents
COAL scores have recently been collected. We particularly congratulate those hard-working students who received a 9 (Excellent) or 10 (Outstanding) COAL score average this term.
