Important Notices
Sports Colours Day
A total of $261.50 was raised which will be going towards Fight Cancer Foundation.
More information about the cause can be found here https://www.footycoloursday.com.au
Students were encouraged to wear their favourite sporting team colours and help us support this important cause. The SRC also ran some fun sporting events on the day.
Thank you for supporting the SCA, SRC and this wonderful cause!
A huge thank you must go to Miss Brooke and our SRC, who put an enormous amount of work into planning and running it all.
Year 3 Teacher Update
As mentioned in a previous newsletter, Miss Olivia will be commencing family leave at the end of Term 3 and will be finishing with us at that time.
We are pleased to let you know that we have appointed Mrs Natalie Panesar to take over the 3A class for the remainder of the year. Mrs Panesar has previously been a member of the KPS community and has worked across a range of year levels during her time with us. We are excited to welcome Mrs Panesar back to KPS and we know she will provide a smooth transition and continue the excellent learning and support that students in 3A have had already.

Parent Opinion Survey
A quick reminder that our annual Parent/Carer Opinion Survey is still open, and we'd love to hear from you.
The survey is your chance to share how you see our school. If you haven't completed it yet, there's still time. The survey is open online until Friday 18 September 2026, takes about 20 minutes, and can be done anytime on a computer, tablet or smartphone.
A compass post with access instructions was sent to all families on Monday 17 August.
Thank you to everyone who has already taken part.
Collecting Children During the Day
If you need to collect your child early, please notify the office in advance so we can have them ready for you. Schools are busy places, and it can take time to locate students, particularly if they are in specialist classes or other learning areas.
To minimise disruptions, please avoid collections during:
• Play 1: 10:58 - 11:28
• Play 2: 1:14 - 1:44
During these times, children may not hear PA announcements, and buildings are locked for safety, making it difficult to collect belongings.
Term 3 Clubs
Term 3 Assembly Dates
The last Assembly for Term 3 will run on Friday the 18th of September at 9:05am.
