Year 7, 8 and 9 Interviews
June 27, 2019
Dear Parents & Guardians, The Student-Parent-Teacher Interviews for Year 7-9 students will be held on Monday 29 July. This is an opportunity for you to discuss your child’s progress with their teachers. Semester One reports will be published during the term break, and additional information and comments about specific assessment results are available throughout the year via your SEQTA Engage login. We encourage students to be present to participate in the interview. There will be two sessions: 7:30am – 11:30am and 2:00 – 7:00pm. Within these time frames, you will be able to book 10 minute interviews with each class teacher. The interviews will be held in the Glenda Parkin Learning Centre (Year 7 Building). Please note if for some reason a teacher is not available on the day their name will not be listed on the Bookings information, and you will receive an email from the teacher to organise an alternative time. To book your interview time please go to: www.ststephens.wa.edu.au. Then:
The booking system will close on Wednesday 24 July. If you have difficulty accessing the bookings, please contact the Helpdesk on 9243 2160. When bookings interviews, you are welcome to book with as few or as many teachers as you wish. A few teachers have so many classes they might be booked out. If this is the case and you wish to make an interview time, please email the teacher and let them know your available times for an in-person or telephone interview. My best wishes for a relaxing and refreshing term break. Warm regards
Liz Criddle Deputy Head of School – Teaching and Learning |

NUT AWARENESS
June 26, 2019St Stephen’s School takes student safety seriously. As our school has a number of students with food allergies, we have adopted a ‘Nut Aware School’ policy.
To support this, we encourage parents to avoid sending foods that contain nuts to school. This includes peanut paste, nut spreads such as Nutella and fruit and nut bars.
We acknowledge that due to food processing practices it is impractical to eliminate nuts or nut products entirely from an environment where there is food. Many food packaging labels include the phrase ‘may contain traces of nuts’. These foods are acceptable. Thank you for your understanding and support of our school policies.
