Many thanks to everyone who came to our meeting yesterday afternoon.  There was a fantastic buzz in the room with lots of conversation, sharing of insights and updates about our students.
We will be sending out a google form to collect your thoughts on the transition of our students, what we are doing well and what we could do differently.  Your views are greatly valued, thanks in advance for your contribution to our collective understanding.  We look forward to sharing the summary.
