Student Led Conferences

Thank you to all parents, students and teachers for making our student led conferences a great success. This created the opportunity to celebrate our students and the work they have put into achieve their learning goals throughout term 2. 

Reports

Reports are now available to all families via SENTRAL. Please ensure you access your child/ren's report/s to keep update with their academic and social-emotional progress.

Uniform

Thank you to our students and the support of our families in ensuring our students are in full school uniform every day. Our students look great in our uniform, and it helps develop pride and a sense of belonging. Uniform spot checks will happen throughout the week.

Black pants and black shorts are not part of our school uniform. As part of our uniform policy, all shorts and pants must be navy blue. Students arriving at school, who are not in uniform will be provided with the opportunity to wear school uniform and a phone call will be made home. 

Foundation 2024 Enrolments 

All enrolment documents are available to download from our website. You may also contact the school and we can send the information to you via email or the post. 

If you know of any families who are interested in enrolling, please ask them to contact the school.

Applications for 2024 Prep Enrolments are required to the school by July 28th.

I hope you all have an enjoyable break and we begin term 3 re-energised and recharged.
