No Hat? Play in the shade

Please ensure that your child has a school hat for use whenever outside every day at school. We have a number of children requesting spare hats each day and sharing personal items can pose a health risk. 

School hats are available for $10 from the school office.

Students who do not have a hat at school are asked to remain in the shaded areas during break times as part of our no hat / play in the shade policy.
