Sun Protection Policy

 Our school is a registered member of the SunSmart Schools Program and has a sun protection policy that meets SunSmart guidelines and recommendations to reduce the risk of skin cancer.  Further information is attached for families. 

The sun protection measures listed in this policy are used for all outdoor activities. Teesdale Primary School recommends that from mid-August to the end of April, and whenever UV levels reach 3 and above, students at school are wearing sun protective clothing which includes their Teesdale Primary School hat with wide brim. 

Clearly Label Clothing

All children’s clothing must be clearly labelled. Every effort is made to return lost property to the rightful owner.  Lost property is stored in the classroom buildings. 

School Bags

Can your child recognise their own school bag?  Attaching a key ring or some identifying items will help, as well as writing their name in permanent marker on the bag.

Reading Bag

All Foundation children will require a “school reading/library bag”.  These need to be waterproof and an appropriate size for sending home take home reading books and library books.

Art Smock

All children will require a long sleeve art smock or long sleeve shirt for Visual Arts classes.
