We use Compass Pay for all school events. This will include both the payment and consent for camps, incursions and excursions.

Team Kids runs the CSPS Out of Hours School Care program each morning and afternoon and on school days and pupil-free days.

To help minimise the amount of lost property this term please remember to label clothing, lunch boxes, drink bottles etc, with your child's full name and we will do our best to return lost property to your child.

Any unlabelled items that are not claimed within 2 weeks will be donated or disposed of.

Lunch Orders

Please note that Mr Brightside's order cut off time is 9:45am.

As some of you may be aware in our last newsletter we advertised that we were going to start using Compass Canteen. We have since reviewed that decision and will continue using the flexischools app to order lunch orders from Mr Brightside.

Lunch Orders will be available for Years 1 - 6 students every Thursday and Friday.

Please note Prep students will be able to order from Term 2.

Please note school assembly time is 2:50pm.

We have also made some adjustments to the assembly schedule.
