Dear Parents, Carers and Trinity Learners
Welcome back to school. For those Trinity families who celebrated Diwali I hope you had an enjoyable time with family and friends. We are looking forward to hearing from some of our Trinity learners about what Diwali means for them at assembly tomorrow.
How are we doing?
Thank you to those who took time to complete our survey. It was very encouraging to read the results with our learners scoring our school an average of 4.83 out of 5 and parents /carers scoring us an average of 4.69.
95% found our Meet the Teacher evening helpful, 93% find Twitter useful, 100% who had received the first profile found it informative, 100% and 91% respectively who attended the MADD event and biscuit and blether enjoyed them and 99% agree that Trinity News keeps them up to date with information. Very positive feedback!
Whilst it is impossible to suit everyone a point for us to consider is how and where we communicate the range of school information.
The lack of hot school lunches was also raised as a concern. This has been escalated through our Parent Council. I am ever hopeful that we will see a return to a full hot lunch service from Mon Nov 21st with elements of hot food being offered from Mon Nov 14th.
Learning Powers
Our Learning Power for this week and next will be Bella the Cooperative Bee. Thank you to Riley in P4 who decided on this one.
