I am delighted to share some wonderful news regarding our Year 6 students’ performance in the National Tests (SATS). Yesterday, we received the results, and I am thrilled to report that our children scored significantly higher than the National Average in all subjects—Grammar, Punctuation, Spelling (SPAG), Reading, and Mathematics.

 

While these tests provide valuable insights into our students’ academic abilities, they do not fully capture the breadth of our efforts at Burnside. Beyond academic achievement, I celebrate the remarkable growth and maturity of our Year 6 children. They embody kindness, respect, and empathy. They work diligently, demonstrate resilience and express themselves thoughtfully.

 

As teachers, we take immense pride in their achievements. Our goal is not only exceptional academic success but also to nurture well-rounded individuals who will make meaningful contributions to society and the world. It truly takes a collective effort—a whole school/ a whole community—to achieve this. From the moment your child starts with us, our dedicated team work tirelessly to  ensure they grow and succeed.

 

I extend my heartfelt gratitude to you, the parents and carers, for your partnership, trust, and appreciation of our professional efforts. Without your support, none of our accomplishments would be possible. Thank you for choosing Burnside for your child’s education and well done once again Year 6.
