Welcome Back!

Welcome back to all of our students and families, we are excited for whats ahead this year!

During the school holidays we have had a few improvements to the school we hope you like what we have done.

One of our improvements was to improve the safety of our students and staff. This has resulted in us putting large rocks as barriers to the playgrounds and prevents any motor vehicle accidentally injuring anyone. This has resulted in a change to the access from Gypsum Street. If you need to drop your children off via this entry, please come up the lane way and turn left into the first car park. The gate at Gypsum Street will only be accessible by emergency vehicles if the need arises. We appreciate your understanding and support.

Our other school improvements have been a new cover for the sandpit, a new garden between the stage 2 and stage 3 buildings and new gardens near the health hub, and a major upgrade to our speaker and announcement system.

Reminder

Just a friendly reminder that our school canteen is currently closed.

Please remember to pack recess, lunch and crunch 'n' sip for your children each day.
