What a year 2021 has been for Sefton Infants School, Australia and the world!  It has certainly been a different year for education with us having to quickly develop remote teaching strategies so that our students could learn safely from home during the pandemic for a significant part of the year.  We have also had to do things differently when we have been at school this year due to COVID-19 restrictions.

Despite all the changes with teaching and learning this year and the world this year, the staff and students of Sefton Infants School have continued to learn and thrive by facing the challenges with resilience and seeing this year and its complexities as another opportunity to improve how we teach and learn at Sefton Infants School.  Not once this year have I heard any of our students or teachers complain that they missed out on something this year at school because of COVID-19 or its restrictions.  We just kept on doing what we do best – that is teaching and learning.  We made the most of what we could do and learnt new ways of doing things.  We put our school motto of, “Working Together”, into practice each and every day to make the most of education, as well as to support and nurture each other. Commendations and a huge thank you to the staff and students of Sefton Infants School for all your achievements in this very different year of education and many thanks to all of you for your support and care of each other. 

Our families have walked beside us every step of the way during 2021. They have done an outstanding job this year with all of its changes to education and school life.  Our families bravely faced learning at home and adapted with resilience and williness to undertake new ways of doing things at school during the restrictions.  We want to express deep gratitude to our parent community for your unconditional support of all of the programs that operate at our school and for working together with us to bring out the best in your children.

Sefton Infants School would like to wish all of our families a wonderful festive season and a safe, relaxing holiday.  We are looking forward to more great learning adventures in 2022.  School commences in the new year for our Year 1 and 2 students on Tuesday 1 February 2022.  Our Preschool and Kindergarten students need to refer to their individual letters for their 2022 starting dates and times.
