Communication with Parents
Newsletters and School Diary
As a college with a strong focus on the overall development of a child it is important that we communicate often and well with the parents of our students. Every Friday the newsletter is emailed to all parents. The newsletter contains relevant information such as upcoming events, school activity, assessment updates and other college issues. We encourage parents to read this newsletter as it provides a vital link to the school.
Additionally, students are required to ensure parents have read their student diary which updates them on homework tasks, results and assignments. This ensures parents are aware of their child’s progress and feel included in the education of their child.
Teacher/Parent Communication
Parents may communicate with teachers through any one of the following ways:
- Student diary
- Phone call: 4969 4199
- Email: firstname.surname@mercymackay.qld.edu.au
eg. john.smith@mercymackay.qld.edu.au
Please be aware it is often not possible for teachers to return phone calls or emails the same day but in all instances teacher’s will respond to parent communication as soon as practicable.
