Father's Day Breakfast

We warmly welcome our DPS dads and their children to a special Father's Day breakfast on Friday 30th August at 7:45am. Please make sure you RSVP by Tuesday 27th August so we can cater for this event. 

Student Free Day

Please be advised that Friday 6th September is a student free day. Children are not required at school on this day.

Late Passes & Early Release Passes

Please remember that when your child is late to school, you must bring your child to the office to be signed in. Your child will then take a Late Pass to give to their teacher. If this process is not followed, your child is not marked as present. Please also come to the office to have your child signed out if they need to leave school early. 

School Absences

A reminder that if your child is away from school due to illness, appointments, holidays or any other reason, you must inform the school either by noting the absence in Compass or calling the school on 9842 3373. It is DET (Department of Education & Training) policy that all student absences are accounted for. 

 

Please also notify your child's teacher if your child will be absent for more than one day so any missed class work can be discussed. 

 

Lost property

If your child has misplaced any of their belongings at school, we have two lost property boxes. One at the tiger turf end of the junior building, and the other opposite the after school care room in the middle school building. 

Please ensure all your child's belongings are named clearly so it is easier for them to be found when they are misplaced.
