Mr Butts' Announcements
Everyone Onsite!
It really is wonderful to have our whole school back in the classrooms this week. The children have settled in brilliantly and are not wasting a minute of learning time.
We are doing everything we can to avoid a whole school lockdown in the event of a school
Covid case. We have restricted student movement and have an action plan ready to enact if required. If a student is tested positive, it is crucial that I am informed as soon as possible. Please contact me at school or email over the weekend.
Thank You P&F!
Thank you to the P&F for purchasing two outdoor table tennis tables for our playground. The children think they are great!
Hall St Car Park
A reminder that the Hall St car park is back in use as both parking space and pick up roundabout. The new concrete path allows students to walk safely to cars without walking between moving traffic. I would also like to remind all parents and carers about the following pick up rules:
Children are not permitted to walk to cars parked in the Marian Centre car park.
Cars are not allowed to double park and pick up students (Emma St).
Cars are not permitted to drop off students in front of the Church.
I appreciate everyone's cooperation and understanding in keeping our children safe.
