Dear parents and caregivers, We reached the end of another exceptionally busy year, I would like to acknowledge and thank the students, staff, the Board of Trustees, WSCA, parents and other members of the school community for their contributions to the life of the school during 2016.
As this is the last newsletter I will contribute to, can I thank everyone for their support and participation in the life of Westburn during my time as principal. I feel most fortunate to have had the opportunity to be associated with such a wonderful school. I’m sure that you will give Susan Jennison the same level of support and encouragement that I have been fortunate enough to receive.
I would like to take the opportunity to extend to you and your families, the compliments of the festive season, a happy Christmas, an exciting and prosperous new year, and a safe and enjoyable holiday.
As this is the last newsletter for the year, please note the following information and notices.
