From the Office

The second hand uniform shop will reopen to families tomorrow, Friday, 9th August at approximately 8:45am. If you plan to visit the shop, please park at the Springvale Road entrance and ensure you sign in as a Parent Visitor at the office.

The PFA welcomes donations but request that clothes donated are in reasonably good condition and are items from the school approved uniform supplier (instead of being generic items from Target or Kmart). Thanks in advance.

The Lost Property Box is located in the Office Admin area. 

We request that parents clearly label children’s jumpers, water bottles and any toys they may bring to school so that ownership is easily established. 

Our lost property box has a few almost new, unmarked items. 

Please visit the Office and check for any lost property as the office will need to regularly cull any items that remain unclaimed over a week or two, due to storage constraints.

Medication at School

This is a reminder to parents that any medication that is to be taken by your child during school hours must be 

• in its original container and bear the original label with the name of the student and information on the dosage and time to be administered
• accompanied by written directions including advice for storage and administration
• within its expiry date

All medication, except asthma puffers for those students able to self administer, are required to be held in the school office. 

Schools are required to obtain written advice on a Medication Authority Form which is attached herewith and also can be obtained from the office. It is recommended that the form be completed by the student’s medical/health practitioner ensuring that the medication is warranted. However, if this advice cannot be provided the principal may agree that the form can be completed by parents or carers.  It is recommended you take a copy of the attached Medication Authority when you visit the GP in anticipation of being prescribed Pharmacy dispensed medication (a course of antibiotics etc.,) for your child, that will need to be administered during school hours.

We have also attached Actions Plans that you may need to have completed by a GP and requires their stamp. All Action Plans should be printed in colour. Please request the Office to print out a copy for you, if required.
