Works on Tresize & Brackenbury St's

As you would no doubt be aware there are works, watermain renewal, occurring in Tresize & Brackenbury St's. This work is expected to be completed by the end of the month. I understand that this has created less parking availability and contributed to traffic chaos, particularly at pick up time. Although frustrating please continue to follow the guidelines below :

School Parking/Drop Off

Parents are not permitted to use the school’s main Forbes Street entrance as a drop off or pick up point between 8.20am and 9.30am, and between 3pm and 4.10pm. This area is used in those times for bus access only.

Brackenbury Street is a ONE WAY street during the hours of 8am to 9.15am, and 3pm to 4pm on school days. This means that to pick-up or drop-off children at the school, drivers must proceed up Anderson Street to enter Brackenbury Street.

MORNING PARKING:

· The south side (school side) of Brackenbury Street is for drop off only. No parking is permitted.

· The north side is for 90 degree angle reverse parking only for those parents who wish to leave their vehicle.

AFTERNOON PARKING:

· Reverse angle parking is permitted on both sides of Brackenbury Street in the afternoon.

Parent Fee Schedule 2021

The fee schedule, terms 1 & 2 excursion planners, Prep-2 swimming program and the 5/6 camp deposit have been entered onto COMPASS. We ask parents/carers to please pay these fees as soon as possible.

As you can imagine there are many resources required to running a school and providing excellence in learning opportunities for students. Funding from DET does not cover the cost of everything we want to provide to all our students.

Our school now relies on the generous and voluntary support of parents and community members to make up shortfalls in funding.

School Council in 2021 would be very grateful of your over and above financial support for all students learning in 2021.

If anyone is having financial difficulties, please contact either the office or Nieta, the Acting Principal, for a confidential discussion.
