🔍 Lost Property 

A reminder to please check Lost Property if your child has misplaced anything. All clothing, lunchboxes, and water bottles are stored on the ground floor outside the library.

Labelled clothing often makes its way back to students, but the best way to ensure this is to check Lost Property regularly.

Any unnamed clothing items that remain unclaimed at the end of the term will be placed in the sickbay for use during accidents or donated to the Second-Hand Uniform Shop. 

All unclaimed lunchbox containers or water bottles will be discarded on the last day of term due to hygiene concerns.

Please ensure all of your child's property is clearly labelled so that it can be returned to the appropriate student.

🌏 Help Us Celebrate Our Cultural Diversity at SMPS!

At South Melbourne Primary School, we are proud of the rich cultural diversity within our school community. To celebrate and share this, we are wanting to create an SMPS Cultural Wall that reflects the backgrounds, traditions, and stories of our students and their families.

We warmly invite families to donate a cultural item, artwork or symbol from your country of origin that can be framed and hung on a wall. Along with your contribution, please include a short description explaining what it is and what it represents.

We will then create a Cultural Wall to show the many cultures represented at SMPS and to promote understanding, inclusion, and pride in our shared community.

If you would like to contribute, please send your item (labelled with child's name and class) to the school office.

Thank you for helping us celebrate the uniqueness of every family at SMPS!
