Lost Property

There are lots of jumpers in the lost property tub in the Middle/Senior unit. If you are missing an item please check here. Lost property tubs are also in the Junior unit. All of these are UNNAMED. 

Any lost property that is left at the end of term will be donated to the 2nd Hand Uniform sale.

Please, please name your child’s uniform as it makes sorting the endless piles of lost property much easier for the volunteers.

Thank you!

Hats Are Back

As the weather is getting better and we are now headed into to Spring we have to be midful of the UV while students are outside. As it is school policy from mid-August to 30 April, when the UV idex reaches 3 or higher all students must wear a sun protective hat.

We ask that from now on you please make sure your child brings a hat to school each day.

Students who are not wearing an appropriate hat may be asked to play in the shade or in a suitable area protected from the sun.

Hats can be purchased from our uniform supplier Spartan School World in Ringwood.

Please make sure that your child's hat is clearly named.
