VIRTUAL CURRICULUM INFORMATION EVENING
On Thursday we will release a video recording detailing information about our Curriculum Programs across specific year levels. Our teachers will share critical information regarding the Victorian Curriculum and how we teach particular skills. Parents will be able to view the recordings at their convenience and ask any questions they might like our teachers to respond to on the actual evening.
Our Curriculum Information evenings will be held on Tuesday 23rd February for the following year levels. After viewing the videos please post your questions on the following google forms.

MEDICAL ALERTS
If your child has a serious medical condition, including any of the following medical conditions: Asthma, Allergy (food or otherwise), Anaphylaxis, Epilepsy, or Diabetes, we require a medical alert to be housed at the school. Medical alerts are in the form of an Action Plan that is given to you by your doctor.
It is vitally important that we have a copy of your child's latest Action Plan at the school in case of an emergency. We also ask that medications held at the school are kept up-to-date. We will reach out to families when medication is due to expire. However, if your child carries their own Ventolin reliever on them we will be unsure of the expiration date.
If your child requires medication for an alternative reason to those listed above you will need to sign the medication in at the front office.
If you have any questions or wish to confirm your child's current plan at the school please contact the school office.

It is very important to us that we maintain the highest levels of communication with you and across our school, so with this in mind we would like to remind all existing and new families the important features of COMPASS and why updating your information on COMPASS is very important to us.
Please fill out the following form and return this to the office if you have updated your residential address, email address or contact phone numbers.
