When should kids stay home if they're sick?
The Royal Children's hospital has some great advice to help you gauge if your child is well enough to come to school, or if they would benefit from resting at home. View the post on Instagram.
Balls brought to school
We know many students love bringing balls to school, which is great fun, but we’ve noticed they often end up on the roof!
Please make sure your child doesn’t bring their favourite or expensive ball, and ensure it is clearly labelled with their name. We’ll return any rescued balls when we can, but roof trips are rare.
