All school uniforms must be ordered through:

LUNCHTIME CUTLERY

As per Department of Education policy, we are not allowed to provide students with single use plastic cutlery, and non-plastic cutlery items borrowed from the staff room have gone missing.

Please ensure that you provide your child with any cutlery needed to eat their lunch and snack.

ONLINE LUNCH ORDERING

We have a number of children that are missing out on their lunch orders due to user error. Please make sure you select the correct date and move through each step to avoid your child missing out on their lunch order. You can check your receipt to confirm that you've completed the order correctly.

Lunch orders are available on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.

Please log in to Qkr! and follow the steps.

Lunch orders are all on line. Orders must be placed by 8:30 a.m.

** Please ensure that you are selecting the correct date for your orders. **

THE JAPANESE WORD OF THE FORTNIGHT

もちろん(‘mochiron’) which means ‘of course’ is the Japanese Word for Week 7 & 8 of Term 2.

You can simply use ‘もちろん’ (‘mochiron’) instead of ‘of course’. It’s a little tricky to pronounce this word. Please remember when you pronounce Japanese words, you don’t roll your tongue.

Thank you / ありがとうございます (pronounced ‘aligatoh gozaimas’) for your continuing support for our Japanese program.
