Out Of School Hours Activities For Students ‘GROWING TOGETHER’
-
Here at Wanneroo Primary School we offer something a little different to many other schools, and that is student participation in out of school hours Growth Groups. Growth Groups are extra-curricular activities provided for students to extend their opportunities to engage positively with other students, and the school, in a relaxed setting. There has been a tremendous response every year to the Growth Groups offered to students.
Growth Groups are offered every term and students are encouraged to take responsibility for auditioning/registering for a Growth Group by picking up a nomination form from the office when they are announced. Nomination forms can be collected and dropped off at the office.

It is important to note though that Growth Groups are a privilege. Consequently, there are some guidelines::
- Students must be punctual.
- Students must attend regularly. (Repeated absentees will lose their spot to a person on the wait list.)
- Students must demonstrate good behaviour each day throughout the school to be accepted into a program and to maintain registration.
Growth Groups are only possible due to the goodwill of staff. Those teachers running a Growth Group do so in their early morning or after school planning time. Consequently, the work they would normally do at the start/end of each day actually ends up getting done in their personal family time at home.

I applaud these teachers and thank them for their dedication to your children.
