Induction Week 2020

Posted on February 11, 2020

We kicked off the 2020 school year with an excellent Induction Week. Students came into the SOTA Campus located in Port Augusta to participate in a variety of learning and extracurricular activities throughout the week.

Students completed a variety of initial assessment tasks involving reading, writing and maths. Class teachers and itinerant teachers gathered assessment data in order to inform instructional next steps. All students participated in Footsteps Dance routines that were facilitated throughout the day on Tuesday. R-5 students went to swimming lessons on Wednesday and Thursday and year 6 and 7 students participated in aquatics on Wednesday. We had a SOTA community dinner at the South Augusta Football Club on Tuesday evening for all families to come together and socialise. The supervisors and govies participated in a variety of induction activities throughout the week in order to set up their schoolrooms for success for the 2020 school year.

Overall, Induction was a successful but busy week! We always enjoy having our families and students join us at the Port Augusta Campus.

We are already looking forward to our next face to face event which is School Camp at Arbury Park in term 1, week 8!
