Dear Parents and Carers,

As we reach the midpoint of the term, I am excited to introduce myself as the new teacher for your child's class. I understand that transitions can be challenging, but I am committed to ensuring a smooth and positive experience for all students. My priority has been to establish a positive and respectful classroom environment. We've spent time getting to know each other, setting clear expectations, and fostering a sense of community. I believe that a supportive atmosphere is crucial for effective learning. To tailor our lessons to meet the needs of each student, I have reviewed their previous work and assessments. This allows me to build upon their existing knowledge and address any areas that may need further attention. While continuity is important, introducing new routines can refresh the classroom dynamic. I've implemented strategies to enhance engagement and encourage active participation. These adjustments aim to make learning more interactive and enjoyable. I value open communication and encourage you to reach out with any questions or concerns. Together, we can support your child's learning journey and ensure their success.

Thank you for your trust and support during this transition. I look forward to working closely with you and your child in Semester 2.

Warm regards,

Riane Labuschagne
