ESafetyCommisioner new website – a great resource for all Parents and Guardians.
The new website will give you access to the world’s most comprehensive suite of information, resources and reporting tools to help you and your child/ren have safer experiences online, through the new online safety hub at esafety.gov.au.
We encourage families to take the time to look at their new website and explore the Parents’ section.
The MAG
We are excited to officially launch our new bi-annual magazine 'The MAG' to our families and extended School community.
We envisage this magazine to travel far and wide to our alumni, current families, prospective families and supporters. In this issue we welcome two new senior staff to the Secondary School, look into the TAS building and school farm, showcase our exciting events from the year so far, and interview two very talented Alumni! We have had a wonderful time putting together various stories for you which highlight what Moama Anglican Grammar means to us, and to the students and staff who call it their school.
We hope you enjoy reading Issue #1.
If you would like a printed copy of the magazine, please visit either the Primary Office or Main Reception.
News from the Resource Centre
Stocktake
As we near the end of the year, staff at the Resource Centre will be carrying out a Stocktake of books and other items. To allow this to happen, all student borrowing will finish on November 11. The Stocktake will start on November 18. We ask that all books borrowed by students be returned between November 11 and November 15 please. Don’t forget students can still access ebooks from Wheelers Books through http://library.moamagrammar.nsw.edu.au.
Overdue books
There are a number of books due back in the Resource Centre and reminders have been sent to students. Parents should have received an email this week, if their child has an overdue book. It would be lovely if you could help to find any missing items. (Hint: They will have a Moama Anglican Grammar label on the back or spine of the book.) If you have any concerns about overdue books, please contact staff at the Resource Centre: library@moamagrammar.nsw.edu.au

Large bulky items on the Bus
Please note that the bus operators are not permitted to transport large items in the external storage compartment of the bus, e.g. bikes or scooters. Should your child need to transport such items please make alternate arrangements. Also remember to park well clear of where the bus is expected to stop.
Thank you for your support with this.
Late students
It has come to our attention that some secondary students are arriving late to school without the appropriate form of communication.
A reminder to parents that late students (or those that are departing early) should either:
Provide an 'out of routine' form when arriving at school / leaving early
Or
Parents/Guardians are to fill in a late arrival/early departure eform via PCSpider.
In the instance that this cannot happen, a phone call or email to the school is also appropriate.
It is our Duty of Care to know where students are at all times.
