LOST PROPERTY - CAN YOU HELP

There is currently an astronomical amount of lost property around the school at the moment.

locations are at the Stadium, Oshclub and in the main building near the Canteen. WE CAN'T KEEP UP!

We are requesting a person to be willing to volunteer their time once per week to help sort it and distribute named items back to their owners. Please contact the School Office if you can spare us some time each week to do this.

FOUNDATION FAMILIES - Extra funding

If you are a family with a Foundation child this year and you are eligible for CSEF, you may also be eligible for the special Winter Warmer package offered by State School Relief. This usually entails a warm jacket, shoes and trousers/dress etc. there is only a short timeline to apply for these.

Please contact Adele Woolard or the school office for further information.

PARENT OPINION SURVEY - extension!

WE WANT OUR PARENTS TO TELL US WHAT THEY THINK.

The end date for this was originally 11th August. If you haven't been able to complete the survey in time, don't lose heart! We have been advised that the survey is now extended to Friday 23rd August.

We genuinely want to know what our parents think and request that, if you have been invited and have not yet done so, please complete your survey as soon as possible. Many thanks.

The survey results will be reported back to the school at the end of September.

Please speak to Sarah Attwood at the Office if you would like more information.
