UP TO DATE CONTACT INFORMATION
It is very important that the school has up to date contact information for each child. If we do not have the correct information at the school it is difficult for us to contact you if need be. If your details change during the year please contact the school as soon as possible or update your details on Compass Parent Portal.
UNIFORMS - end of phase in period
The change of school uniform from summer to winter or winter to summer is not always associated with the school term. Our uniform policy states that there will be a two week phase in period called by the school. We do this to cater for the change in seasons. During this time students are ask to be in full uniform either summer or winter, not a mixture of both. Students are able to wear either summer or winter uniform depending on the weather, until MONDAY 24th October when all students will be required to wear full summer uniform. If you have any problem with your child wearing the uniform please contact the office as soon as possible to discuss the matter further.
