SSO Recognition Week
Last week, we were proud to recognise and celebrate our incredible School Support Officers.
Our SSOs are the people who quietly keep so much of our school moving every day. Whether they’re supporting students and staff, caring for our grounds and facilities, providing first aid, or keeping our library and administration running smoothly, their hard work makes a genuine difference across LNPS.
Thank you to each and every one of our SSOs for your care, patience, flexibility and commitment. So much of what you do happens behind the scenes, but it certainly doesn’t go unnoticed.
We are incredibly grateful for everything you bring to our school and our community.
Thank you for all that you do!
Check out these amazing portraits!!!! Our students have been hard at work creating some wonderful and VERY accurate portraits to celebrate our amazing team of SSO’s.
Materials and services charge
The State Government has committed to removing universal materials and services charges from 2027 as part of its cost-of-living measures for South Australian families. Schools will not lose under this policy. This initiative will be funded by the State Government and your school will be provided with the funding that it would have received through the universal materials and services charge. Your school will also continue to receive funding to meet the needs of students and to staff classrooms.
Legislative changes are still required before the new arrangements can take effect.
This information is provided to support families to plan for 2027.
Families will not be required to pay the universal materials and services charge. The initiative will avoid the need for primary school families to apply for school card and this will reduce administrative burden for families and the school.
Families will continue to pay for items such as uniforms, digital devices and optional excursions, as has always been the case.
Please note that the discontinuation of the universal materials and services charge applies with effect from the 2027 school year.
Any outstanding charges should continue to be paid, and your school can work with you if there are any issues. This initiative does not apply to international or non-resident students and separate advice will be provided in due course. The focus of this policy is for schools.
The current fee arrangements for preschools will continue.
