Expressions of Interest - Outside School Hours Care (OSHC)

Verney Road School is introducing a High Intensity Outside of School Hours Care (OSHC) program for students in 2025.

Sessions will run from 3pm - 6pm from the Verney Road site. Transport options will be available from our new Junior Campus on Parkside Drive.

If you are interested in your child participating, please leave their details via the link.

Please note: this is an Expression of Interest only and not a guarantee of placement. Offers of places and enrolment processes will be provided before the end of the year.

Car Park Reminders

Each day, our small car park facilitates the entry and exit of more than 260 students. With only 10 visitor spaces available, please ensure your drop-off/pick-up is a quick ‘kiss and go’ to help ease congestion.

Wheelchair Access: We have a number of students who use wheelchairs and hence need access to these first two carparks to safely transition to and from school. Please allow priority of access to families where possible.
Speed Limit: A 5 km/h speed limit applies at all times.
Drop off and pick-up times: The car park is supervised in the mornings from 8.45 and from 2.30 pm in the afternoon. Drop off times are from 8.45am to 9.00am and 9.15 am
Please note that there is a pause on all traffic between 9.00 am and 9.15 am and between 2:55 pm and 3:10 pm to allow buses to load and exit safely.

Thank you for helping us keep our car park a safe place for everyone.

Debutante Ball

On Tuesday, 17th September 2024, Verney Road School hosted its annual Debutante Ball at The Woolshed at Emerald Bank.

The event saw nine Senior Years' students take the stage, partnered with community members performing da to a packed venue.

The night was a great example of the strong bond between our school and the community, creating lasting memories for everyone who attended.

See later in the newsletter for more photos & the video from the night.
