PRINCIPALS' TWO DAYS ADDITIONAL PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT SESSIONS
The suite of PD workshops for Principals and Deputies have been extremely well supported with most sessions being filled to capacity. We thank you for your attendance and a similar suite of workshops will be presented again in weeks 4 and 5 of next term. Our special thanks go to Barb Horan and her hard working team for facilitating the workshops and a big thank you to Sevenoaks SC for hosting various sessions in their library.
LEADERSHIP CENTRE REQUEST FOR INFORMATION
The Leadership Centre is seeking a list of all Acting/Relieving Principals, Deputies and Heads of Department (HOD's) in Canning Schools. This will enable the Centre to communicate directly with staff on Leadership modules they are offering. The District office holds information on Acting/Relieving Principals so there is no need to supply this information. Principals are asked to email Mark.Williams@det.wa.edu.au and provide the names and positions of any Acting/Relieving Deputies and HOD's in their schools. Your compliance with this request is gratefully acknowledged.
