All of the staff at Berry Public School wish to welcome everyone back to the new school year.
We sincerely hope everyone had a wonderful holiday and managed a well deserved break with family and friends.
Staff have been work hard completeing training, planning and preparing for the year. We are all looking forward to seeing the students.
On Friday our students will be in their 2020 class groups as our student numbers are on the border of 12 or 13 classes and we must be certain of all students returning before moving into our 2021 class structures. Staff have been working hard on modelling classes for both scenarios and we appreciate your support and patience.
Staff Changes
Last year we farewelled Mr Sutton, Ms Davidson and Mr Warden who have all retired from a distinguished service to our school and public education.
Mrs Crilley has accepted a position as full time relieving Assistant Principal at Cambewarra PS and, although we will miss her very much, we wish her all the best with the opportunity.
We are all excited to welcome back Mr Haddon to the school after his extended leave in the second semester of 2020 (He picked a great year to have off!)

We continue to be required to have strategies in place to manage Covid-19 which affects some programs and parent access to school events.
We will provide clear and detailed advice to families as required. Please rest assured we want everything back to business as usual as soon as possible.
Current advice has been sent to parents via the APP.
