Successful Student Award Recipients

At our assembly last Friday twelve students received the above award certificate. Our congratulations to them all.

Parking

Please ensure that you are observing signage on the roads around the school and only parking where permitted. We have been made aware that The City of Wanneroo has recently been issuing fines to parents. Please also ensure that you respect our neighbours by not parking across driveways restricting access to homes. Please utilise the kiss and drive for drop off and pick up or if you wish to park please only park in designated parking bays.

Swimming

Please ensure that swimming permission slips and payment are returned as soon as possible as swimming commences on Monday 24 May. Cash payments are to be made to class teachers before school. EFTPOS facilities are available at the front office for card payments or alternatively payments can be made online.

Updated Personal Details

If you have changed any of your personal details could you please advise the front office so that we can update student records. It is important that you notify us as soon as details change for yourself or any of the individuals that you have authorised to collect your child.

Absentees

The Department of Education regulations require an explanation, either verbal, a dated note or a medical certificate (for more than 2 days) to cover a student's absence from school. Absence notifications can be sent to the school through the MGM Text messaging service by texting 0447 897 159 with a brief reason for the absence and the students name, or by emailing Marangaroo.PS@education.wa.edu.au.

Please do not email staff directly as attendance records may not be updated within time requirements if staff are absent or unable to check their emails.

Students with colds and or flu like symptoms or an upset stomach should not be sent to school. Please keep them home to alleviate spreading the germ to other students and staff.

Late Arrivals and Early Collection

Just a reminder that when students arrive after the morning siren please ensure they come through the office so that they are marked in attendance. If students are being collected at any point during the day, parents must also come to the office to collect the student.

Giralt Road Crosswalk

We have been advised that our regular crosswalk attendant will not be available tomorrow, Thursday 13 May, either in the morning or the afternoon.

Lost Property

With the cooler weather students have started to wear their zip up jackets. Many of these are brand new and the front office has had numerous calls already regarding students not coming home with their jackets. Please ensure that all your children's clothing is labelled so that items can be returned to their rightful owner.
