Cranbourne South Primary School

Return to school Term 4

Camp Program update

In the current COVID climate we have been advised by the Department of Education (DET) that we are unable to attend school camps. 

We have been communicating with the school camps (both Senior school and Middle school) regarding cancellations and future bookings for 2021. 

  • At this stage we are hoping to provide only the Year 6 students with the opportunity to attend Camp Rumbug at the end of Term 4 (301120 – 021220).
  • This will be dependent on advice from the Chief Health Officer aligned with DET guidelines.
  • The decision to possibly provide a camp for our Year 6 students  has been made based on providing a ‘celebratory event’ to farewell them at the end of an ‘interesting’ year.

All other camps for Middle school students and our Year 5 students have been re-booked for 2021. 

 

We are endeavouring to schedule both the Senior and Middle school camps for Term 2 rather than the end of the year.  This will ensure an opportunity for students to experience the benefits of camps earlier in the year and strengthen the connections with their peers.

Onsite attendance applications for Term 4 - Week 1 will open on Tuesday, 29 September and close Thursday, 1 October 2020 (second week of the school holidays).
