ALLERGY AWARE

A friendly reminder that St Francis Xavier's School is an allergy aware school. 

 

This means that we aim to create a safe environment for our students with allergies and request that our families are mindful of the foods being packed in their child's lunchbox. 

 

Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

 

 

AFTER SCHOOL ARRANGEMENTS

 

Before your child/ren arrive at school, we ask that you please communicate with them their after school arrangements and how they are getting home in the afternoon. While we understand arrangements can change it is important that your child/ren is aware of their home time instructions. 

 

Thank you for your assistance. 

 

 

 

 

PARKING REMINDER

Parents are reminded that when dropping off and/or picking up your child/ren, you are to use street parking only. Please do not park on private property or in the staff car park. 

 

The residents surrounding the school grounds would appreciate if you did not park on their lawns or in their driveways.

 

Please ensure that any family or friends picking up are aware of the parking options.
