From the office
Late arrivals / early departures
If your child is late to school (even by one minute) please sign them in at the office. The teachers mark the rolls at 9:00am and do not have time to go back and change this for late arrivals. If you need to collect your child early for an appointment, please call or email the school office prior to your arrival, this enables the teacher to have your child packed up ready to go.
Sunsmart School
A reminder that hats must be worn for outside play from the start of September. Please make sure your child has a broad-rimmed hat.
Spare clothing
Please pack some spare clothing for your child/ren. With the wetter weather upon us, many children are coming to the sickbay at recess and lunch wet or muddy. We have a limited amount of clothing in sick bay and cannot always give children spare clothing. If you child is excessively wet and muddy you will be contacted and asked to bring in a change of clothes.
Staff Carpark
The off-street carparking along the front of the school on Smith Street is for staff parking. We ask that parents do not park in these spots, as if these car parking spots are full staff need to park on the street all day. There is the drop off zone and parking along Carrington Street or further along Smith Street.
Classroom Opening Times
Please be reminded that the classrooms do not open until 8.50am.
Please ensure that your child is supervised prior to this time, as the yard is not supervised until 8.45am. If you require care prior to this time, we do offer Before School Care.
Working With Children Checks / VITs
Would all parents please ensure their WWCC is current prior to nominating to help with activities during camps. It is a legal requirement for those assisting with child activities to hold a current WWCC (either volunteer or employee) OR a current VIT card (for teachers).
WWCC applications are free for volunteers and can be obtained online at https://www.workingwithchildren.vic.gov.au/.
