Picking up students on Thursdays
If you need to pick up your child/children on Thursdays after 1pm, please advise the Front Office before 1pm by phone 6543 7444 or via email admin@aberdeen.catholic.edu.au , so your son/daughter can attend the non-sport room. With various sports off site, it is sometimes difficult and time consuming trying to locate students being picked up. If students wait in the non-sport room, it is much quicker to locate them and call them to the office for pick-up.
