Horseshoe Kiss 'n Ride

For the safety and convenience of all kiss 'n ride users, please remain with your vehicle at all times. This is strictly a NO PARKING area. 

 

If you arrive late to school and wish to accompany your child/ren to the office you must park in designated parking areas not in the kiss n' ride as it inconveniences others who are using the facility correctly.

Online Payments

Reminder: If you are making direct deposits to the school account for excursions or voluntary contributions can you please ensure that you provide a reference that includes the CHILD'S NAME AND YEAR GROUP to allow for timely processing. 

For example: J Citizen yr 1

Traffic Warden - Giralt Rd

We have been advised by the WA Police, Children's Crossing Unit, that due to a number of retirements and Covid impacts, the number of available Children's crossings attendants for relief work has fallen.  In the event that our crossing is unmanned due to our attendant being unwell we request that you discuss safe road crossing practices with your children to enable them to travel safely to school. 

 

The WA Police have expressed an urgent need for Traffic Wardens and have requested that we encourage any Parents/Grandparents that may be interested in becoming a Traffic Warden to contact the department directly on 6274 8731. There is an application and training process, and if successful you would be placed at a currently unmanned crossing only. It is also a paid position which does not affect a pension too much if employment is taken up. It would be highly recommended that any potential applicant on a pension contact Centrelink to discuss any implications. The current rate of pay is $25.58 per hour - two hours per day/five days per week. 

Sorrento Beach Swimming Lessons

Notes regarding the above were sent home with students last Wednesday.  Forms to be returned by Wednesday 23 February.  

 

As the lessons are held outdoors we encourage the students to wear a rash vest.
