School Ambulance Insurance

Pilgrim School has an insurance policy with SA Ambulance Service which covers the cost of an ambulance for all students in the event of an accident or medical event at school or during out-of-hours school activities.

However, please be aware that this policy does not extend to pre-existing conditions, such as diagnosed asthma or anaphylaxis.

If a student’s pre-existing condition requires an ambulance whilst at school, parents/caregivers will be invoiced by SA Ambulance Service unless they have their own coverage. We therefore recommend you consider your circumstances. Cover is often provided as an extra through health insurance policies or can be taken out as a separate personal policy.

Uniform Checks Term 3

Over the next few weeks, our staff will be checking whether students are wearing correct uniform. Please ensure your child is wearing the correct items as per our uniform policywhen they come to school. Until the beginning of December, summer or winter uniform may be worn, but not a mix of these. For the month of December, only summer uniform may be worn. 

Please note the following: 

Jewellery

Earrings – single plain round metal stud or plain sleeper in both ear lobes. 

No bracelets or necklaces.

Hair

Hair longer than the shoulders must be tied back from the face (entirely up).

Hair accessories should be uniform colours.

Haircuts should be no less than ‘Number 2’.

Additional Items

No clothing should be visible under the uniform (for example, singlets or T shirts).

If you have questions about uniform, please contact Kristen Heath or the Front Office staff. Teachers will send parents an email if they notice there are components of the uniform your family needs to address.

Planning for 2025 

If your family has different plans for 2025 and your child will not be returning to Pilgrim School next year, please remember the school requires a term’s notice in writing. Please complete our Notice of Enrolment Withdrawal form by Friday 27th September (the end of Week 10 this term) to avoid paying a term’s fees in lieu of agreed notice.
