Packing a Spare Change of Clothes

With the cold wet weather well and truly on us, we are very quickly running out of spare clothes with all the muddy puddle incidents. We'd like to ask if families could please pack a spare set of socks, pants and underwear in their child's bag, that would greatly assist us.

Lost property

We have another big amount of school clothing, non branded items, hats, lunch containers, drink bottles and sports equipment that either have no names or are not clearly marked in our lost property containers.

Could I please ask all parents to once again check that your child's items are clearly marked and legible as names fade over time. This includes marking food containers, drink bottles and sports items and if items have a Ragtag to register and name them. The Ragtag items if registered will automatically send you a message if your child item is placed in the lost property cupboard.

We check the lost property every week and return items with names to the classroom.

Please see photos of items in our tubs which we have been unable to return to the owner. The amount of HATS is very large with children not wearing their hats this term. Can you please check your child has their hat.

Please ensure all items are named with non fading pens or iron on / stick on labels. This will ensure your chances of not loosing valuable items. If putting surname please also add first name initial.

Thank you from Fiona and Meagan

School Drop Off Time & Late Passes

For safety reasons, we kindly ask that students are not dropped off or picked up from within the staff car park. Please use the 'Kiss & Go' area or other suitable safe parking areas on the street.

Students arriving after 9.00am must be accompanied by their parent/carer and signed in at the office. Please sign them in on the kiosk, where a late pass will print out which needs to be taken to their teacher.
