Welcome To IQRA School

Dear Parents and Caregivers of Year 1 Room 1,

On the 2 March 2026 I had sent a letter home to Year 1 parents to let you know that Miss Neetika was unwell.  Please know that she continues to rest and recover from her illness and is making good strides.  However, she requires a little more time before returning to school.  We do expect her back on 24 March if she continues to get her rest.  We know she will recover well and we are supporting her with this. We are working with experienced primary teachers to ensure they work closely with the Primary team and myself and Miss Neetika.  This will enable a continued smooth transition of expectations and academic continuity in the Year 1 classroom.  

We wish Miss Neetika well in her full recovery and she is aware we all support her and understand your health cannot be overlooked.

I believe your child is in the best care in Year 1 going forward and am looking forward to a continuation of high-quality teaching and learning.  

If you have any questions, please let me know.  

Kind regards,

Leanne Chartrand

Morning Tea

We request a plate of food from each family for the Grandparents and Special Friends morning tea.  Bite size yummies would be appreciated, hot or cold.  For example, muffins big or small, scones, pikelets, cake, cut up into small pieces.  The school will provide savouries for the morning tea.  Could the plate or container you bring the food in on, be clearly marked so we can return it to you.  Please place all items on the tables provided inside the Hall.  
 

Seating

We ask our guests to be seated in the Hall by 8.55am.  Please make yourself known at reception if you have mobility issues so we can assist with the lift or anything else needed.
