As we head into the tail end of this term, which is a long one, there is a lot happening and we still have our high expectations. Over the coming weeks it is important that:

We show kindness in all our interactions.
Attendance remains a priority! Children are expected at school EVERY DAY until the last day of this term.
Children are always in their school uniform and have their hats (if you need support please contact the office!).
Please ensure your child is on time to school.
Please keep up to date with Compass and Class Dojo posts as this is where regular information will be shared.

2024 PLANNING: STILL HAVE TO ENROL OR NOTIFY US THAT YOU'RE EXITING?

We are well underway in planning for 2024. One of the biggest impacts on our planning is our student enrolments. If you are or someone you know are yet to enrol their child for 2024 please contact the office ASAP! Additionally, if your child/ren will be attending another school next year, please contact the office. Thank you to those who have already notified us.
