Facilities & Capital Works 

Yaluk Building:

The excitement is building for the Official Opening of the Yaluk building next Monday starting at 10 am. We hope the student leaders will be seated before 10a.m. wearing their vests and badges.

The ribbon will be cut at the bottom of the stage stairs and the stage curtains will be opened to reveal the Performing Arts room - set up for a lesson.  

The operable walls will be folded back on Friday afternoon and the  front stage curtain will be in place just in case you want check out the dimensions for your performances. We will be reinstating the wall after the opening Ceremony. Use this opportunity to refresh your staging options.  We are looking forward to our first production in the new facility.

The Yaluk classroom corridor is a thoroughfare  to the Art room.  Be mindful of students working in the open space near the art room. Also students working in the open space should be able to accommodate the area as a thoroughfare.

The double cupboards that are in the classroom hallway have been allocated to storing Jacana hospitality items e.g. hot water urns, good crockery and cutlery, table cloths, spare hospitality supplies etc.  There is not enough room in the new kitchen to accommodate school supplies.

FACILTIES

There were a number of maintenance jobs completed during the holidays. These included grooming of the playground turf; new line markings in carparks, painting of the science room and Meeting and Assessment room 2.

New photocopiers have been installed in the printing room in the Yaluk building, Learning Specialist area in old room 25, Meeting& Assessment Room 2, Resource room and in main administration office. You may need to select a new printer on your computers.

Facilities job requests and notifications: 

Log any jobs for Maintenance on SharePoint. When logging jobs please provide the exact location of the door, window etc this will allow Jacob to repair the item even if there is no staff member in the room. Logging the item in detail will enable Jacob and I to schedule the works and ensure they are completed in a timely manner. 

Big Bin

The big bin will be moved to the concrete pad staff carpark outside the storage room. DO NOT place items around the bin. If items do not fit in the bin take them back to your classroom and advise me and I will organise for it to be emptied. The bin is emptied every Wednesday morning before school commences.

Workplace inspections & reporting items

If you have a maintenance issue in your office or room these should be reported in the Maintenance log immediately. DO NOT wait until the end of term to report these issues as many need to be rectified as quickly as possible to avoid incidents.

Air conditioners can staff please make sure AC units are turned off at the end of the day. TURN OFF the AC units in the OT room & climbing room as you leave at the end of each session.
