Last Friday the P&F hosted a very special Mother’s Day breakfast which was enjoyed by both Wyvern mums and their sons. Such functions cannot go ahead without tremendous effort and hard work from parent volunteers. I thank the P&F executive team and especially Sara Flaksbard and Katia Pizzinelli (Tuckshop) for putting on a superb event.

With NAPLAN testing completed for this year I wish to congratulate the students and staff in Year 3 and Year 5 for their calm approach with the testing arrangements this week. We seek to strike a good balance between ensuring the boys are adequately prepared for the NAPLAN testing format whilst providing an environment which is calm and as stress free as possible. Results of the NAPLAN tests are due back late in Term 3. Whilst our NAPLAN results are normally very strong we will nonetheless carefully analyse the data to assist us to continually improve our teaching and learning strategies.
