NAPLAN

Our Year 3 and 5 students commenced NAPLAN testing on Thursday, the test window will continue to March 24th. NAPLAN tests students in years 3, 5, 7 and 9 against core literacy and numeracy, and provides whole school data to help us identify areas where we are doing well and others where we need to do more work on.

 

2025 FRIDGE CALENDAR

We have had printed 2025 Helidon State School fridge calendars that the students will bring home today. Please give these to your family and neighbours. We have heaps of them so if you want some more, please ask.

 

MEETINGS WITH TEACHERS

  • Please check in with your child's teacher if you have any concerns about their progress.
  • If there are any diagnoses that may impact on your child's learning, please make sure you let us know. We may be able to provide some support here at school. Please contact your child's teacher or our Principal.
