Principal's Report
Welcome
As you would know, the aim of our school is to provide high quality teaching and programs so that our students can ‘be the best that they can be’. At both campuses, students are constantly engaged in a diverse range of learning activities. Students are expected to demonstrate through their behaviours the expectations of the school. Students will be responsible, be safe, be respectful and be a learner.
Please remember that there is a public holiday on Monday 11th June when your child is not required at school.
Sick Students
This is the time of the year when many of our students are sick through catching the flu or a virus. Parents/carers, I ask that you make every effort to keep your child at home until they are well. I know that this may cause hardship, especially if you are a working parent, but keep in mind that if your child is sick and is sent to school, then others including staff may pick up this infection/illness.
Parking at the Front of the school
This is a reminder that parents/carers are not to pull up on the front driveway between the hours of 8.30 - 9.15am and 2.30 - 3.15pm. The school buses park on the driveway during this time and it is extremely dangerous for our students if cars are also parked on the driveway. Additional car parking is available on Gleeson Drive and at the back of the school.

School Communication and the use of Compass
It is important that all parents log into Compass so our school can communicate effectively with you.

Principal's Award
The Principal's Award goes to Tamar Chirnside
Tamar is an excellent and enthusiastic participant at swimming, she is respectful and friendly to the people we meet at the pool.
Tamar is always safe and responsible using the safe entry technique to enter the pool and always follows Scott's instructions and she does a great torpedo rocket off the wall.
Congratulations on consistently doing your best, Tamar.
