Parent/Teacher Conference Bookings
This year reporting guidelines have changed and the way that schools communicate with parents can look different to previous years. Burnie Primary has decided that a parent teacher conference is a better way to clearly communicate how your child is settling into school this year and will not be completing the tick a box assessment that has been done previously.
The department has provided two videos to explain these changes, which can be found using the links below:

The focus of this communication will be about your child’s learning progress, application to learning and wellbeing. Due to current COVID restrictions these will be spaced over a 2 week period to reduce the number of people on site at any time. You will also have the option for a Telephone Conference if you would prefer not to attend in person.
If attending in person, when waiting for your conference time please wait outside the external classroom door and remember to wear a mask when inside the building, as per department guidelines. If attending a face to face conference it is strongly recommended you are fully vaccinated.
These meetings can be booked using the SOBS app (from 6.00pm Monday 21 March) through this link:

If you are new to using SOBS please see the attached instructions - or call the school office for assistance.
Booking rounds will open after 6.00pm Monday 21 March 2022 to allow you to make appointments which will be available for various days between Monday 28 March and Thursday 7 of April.
When booking ensure you select whether you would like a face to face conference or a telephone appointment.
