Canteen

The school canteen operates every school day.  It provides a nutritious variety of wholesome foods, both hot and cold.  Orders for lunch are taken before school or at recess, and to avoid disappointment, students are encouraged to order their lunch at these times.

Evans High School Bell Times

Assembly is held every Tuesday prior to recess in the COLA.

Whole school assemblies are held in WEEK A

Year group assemblies are held in WEEK B

Attendance

All children enrolled at school are required to attend school on each day that instruction is provided. Regular attendance and punctual arrival to school are important components of student well-being and achievement.

Parents/Carers are required to send a note explaining any absences within seven days of the absence.  If the absence is not explained within this timeframe the absence becomes an ‘unexplained absence’.

Uniform Shop

The uniform shop is open Tuesday and Thursday mornings between 8am and 8.30am. You can also order online and pick-up at school. 

Students can visit the school shop to try clothes on for size or make purchases, and we’re able to stay open a little longer for parents and carers on Tuesday and Thursday mornings.

As we hit the cooler months, please note that leggings are to be treated as undergarments beneath a skirt or shorts only and are not to be worn as trousers.
