Staying Safe

Last newsletter, there was a reminder for parents that before and after school, only the school yard is directly supervised by staff from 8.45 - 9.00am and 3.30 - 3.45pm. This week I would like to ask families to remind their children, that once they arrive at school, they should go straight in and not leave school grounds. We have had reports of students gathering out in Fairbairn Rd before school. This is a very busy road with lots of traffic and we need your support in keeping our students safe.

This free session for parents focuses on moving from conflict to constructive conversation, exploring practical ways to support healthy gaming habits without constant battles.
