Roosters Looking for New Homes
We have some adorable Belgian d'Uccle roosters looking for new homes! They are pure bred, stay small and don't crow as loudly as regular roosters. They would make a great addition to an existing flock.
If you want to see what they look like fully grown, please come and see our rooster, Rocky.
For more information, please contact Rebekah Shurley via email at: rebekah.shurley@dcs.tas.edu.au
Extended Leave Applications
A reminder that an Extended Leave Application is required for any student absences for an extended period of time. This applies in particular to families taking extended holidays (longer than one week) during school terms.
Parents must notify the school in advance for a planned absence (such as a holiday or appointment) and this will be placed into the school attendance system. Family holidays are required by State Law to be marked as unauthorised absences (See 3.3 in Attendance Policy with reference to the Education Act 2016). Parents wishing to take their children travelling during the school term for a period longer than one week, will need to complete an ‘Application for Extended Leave’ form and receive approval from the Principal prior to travelling.
Please contact the Central Office if you require an Application for Extended Leave form.
