Coming Up at FWPS
Footscray West Primary School
Wearing Hats in Term 4
Term 4 brings warmer weather, which means strict "No Hat, No Play" rules according to our Sun Protection Policy.
Students are required to wear a school hat or a hat that protects the face, head, neck and ears when outdoors, for example broad-brimmed, legionnaire or bucket hats.
Baseball or peaked caps and sun visors are not considered a suitable alternative, as they do not protect the ears, cheeks or neck.
Students who are not wearing appropriate protective clothing or hats will be asked to use the breezeway between Wallaby and Bilby buildings as this is a suitable area protected from the sun.
Books 'n' Boots Donation Drive
FWPS is once again collaborating with the wonderful, local charity Books 'n' Boots. Last year, our school community donated a huge number of boots to First Nations children in need. This year, we are looking for donations of books (including baby books, children’s books, novels, graphic novels and young adult books). Please make sure they are in good condition. These books will be re-homed to First Nations children in need in regional and remote communities across Australia.
The big, wooden Books n Boots donation box can once again be found in the foyer of the school office. Please drop your book donations directly into the box before the end of Week 4, Term 4.
Thank you in advance!
