UP TO DATE CONTACT INFORMATION

It is very important that the school has up to date contact information for each child. If we do not have the correct information at the school it is difficult for us to contact you if need be. If your details change during the year please contact the school as soon as possible or update your information on your Compass app.

NAMES ON ALL UNIFORMS & ITEMS

At the moment the lost property box is overflowing with items that have been left in the playground and don't have names on them. It is hard to return items if we don't know who they belong too. Could you please ensure your child's name is on all their uniform items and other things they bring to school so if they are left behind they can be returned to the correct person as soon as possible.

SUN SAFE

The school has the rule of no hat no play. The children who forget their hat are to sit in a designated area. Please ensure your child remembers their hat every day! The office does not lend hats to students.

OFFICE HOURS and ANSWERING MACHINE

Just a reminder our office hours are from 8:40 to 3:30 each day. The office can become very busy at times looking after visitors/parents, caring for the students and taking phone calls, so if your call is not answered PLEASE leave a message on the answering machine and the messages will be checked as soon as possible. 

SECOND HAND UNIFORMS

The school does not keep any second hand uniforms. If you would like to buy second hand uniforms you can do so at St Vinnies or the Op Shop. 

If you have uniforms to donate please take them to either of these places. Thank you
