Grade 5 Market Day - Wednesday 25th June

Grade 1 students are invited to attend the Grade 5 Market Day. If you would like your child to buy something on the day, please supply them with no more than $10 in a labelled zip lock bag (student's name and class) and a small shopping/tote bag to carry their goodies in. 

Pease keep in mind that your child will be with many different teachers on this day as the Grade 1 teachers will be participating in Planning Day. It will be helpful if you could assist your child with keeping their money zipped up safely in their school bags and discuss with them also how much money they have.

Late arrivals, early leavers and absences

To meet legal requirements, we must complete our attendance rolls promptly each morning. If your child arrives after 9:00am, they will be marked absent and must be signed in at the office by a parent or guardian.

If your child is absent from school, please remember to log the reason for their absence on Compass. For early departures, we kindly ask that you email your child’s teacher in advance. Thank you for your support in helping us maintain accurate attendance records.

Lost jumpers

As the weather is getting colder, students are wearing their jumpers, but also losing them around the school! To ensure jumpers and other clothing garments can be returned to their rightful owners, please ensure your child's name is clearly marked on the garment.
