This Month at Kathryn Winn Primary

I’m excited that we are launching our new Kathryn Winn Primary School newsletter. This will be a space where we regularly share and celebrate the wonderful learning happening across our school, highlight our vision and mission in action, and keep our community informed about our goals and next steps. I look forward to using the newsletter to strengthen our connection with families and to showcase the achievements, growth, and successes of our students and staff.

In Reading and Math, our students are building strong foundations through phonics, number sense, and problem-solving every day. Teachers are using small groups, targeted interventions, and data-driven instruction to meet each child’s unique needs and celebrate growth. By regularly reviewing student progress, we’re able to adjust lessons, provide extra support where needed, and challenge students to keep moving forward.
