Welcome to our final Newsletter for Term 2. It is hard to believe that we are reaching the end of another school term. I would like to congratulate and thank all of our students and staff on the way they approached the teaching and learning program over this semester. I recently read the semester one progress reports and it is great to hear about what the students have achieved so far this year. I look forward to what the next two terms bring.  

Semester 1 Student Progress Reports

Semester 1 Progress Reports were emailed home on Tuesday. I would like to congratulate our students on the progress they have made so far this year in their learning. If you did not receive your child/ren’s Report please let the front office know.

Kindergarten & Pre-Primary Applications to enrol 2026

Byford Primary School is now taking enrolment applications for students entering Kindergarten and Pre Primary in 2026. Both Byford Primary School and Byford Community Kindergarten will be offering a Kindergarten program in 2026. When completing an application to enrol for Kindergarten, parents will be asked to nominate which program they wish to apply for. 

The Department of Education requires an application for enrolment on entering Kindergarten, starting Pre-Primary and Year 7, or when changing schools.  Parents of children currently attending Kindergarten programs this year (2025) must apply at the school for Pre Primary placement in 2026 if you wish your child to continue attending Byford Primary School.  Further details on how to enrol are included in this Newsletter.

Applications for enrolment are due by Friday 25^th July. Kindy places can fill up fast so please make sure you get your enrolment in as soon as possible.
