Creative Arts Night 

!! Creative Arts Evening Expressions of Interest for Solo Performances !!

This year, we are trialling the recommencement of solo performances of students who are actively involved in paid tuition for music, dance or drama outside of school hours. 

We are seeking for expressions of interest from any student in Years 5/6 who have participated in paid tuition classes for music, drama or dance and have participated at Eisteddfod competitions in 2023 for their specific art form. Students must provide evidence of participation at Eisteddfods and will be required to perform one item for a duration of 1 minute. All equipment must be supplied and transported to the Creative Arts Evening and our rehearsals by the student and their families. 

If your child is interested in performing a solo item in the Creative Arts Evening this year and they meet the requirements above, please contact Mrs Nugent by 31st October. 

Following the 2023 Creative Arts Evening, we will be evaluating the success of the solo performance inclusions to see if we extend our invitation to more students in the following years.

YOUTH VOICE IN SCHOOLS

The 2023 NSW Youth Advisory Council (YAC) are passionate about ensuring young people have a say when it comes to their education, and they want to hear from students about how schools can best listen to students. If you are interested please scan the barcode on the attached image and complete the survey.

 

School Fees

Thank you to our School community for your continuing payments of school fees.  With many families in difficult times, we are very fortunate that everyone makes the greatest effort to pay school fees which supports the education of all students.  Thank you.

 

I also ask parents to ensure their fees are up to date.  School fees are a crucial economic requirement to ensure all our students can access the curriculum and be provided with improved educational outcomes.  Money collected from school fees is directed towards the children of today.  Any family requiring assistance with school fees is encouraged to contact the school office. 

Techone - Options for paying 

As we have now fully transitioned to the new finance system Techone, their are new ways in which you can make payments to the school, this includes Bpay, CompassPay and EFTPOS. You can make payments for School Fees and Events via the Compass App.  Please contact the School if you require assistance with the Compass App.
