Term Two Working Bee

Keeping our school looking great is a never ending job and one that is impossible to do without the helping hands of our community.

 

Please put Saturday 18th May in your diaries for our term two working bee. 

 

We ask families to spare an hour or two between 9am and 1pm to come and help us keep the school clean, tidy and safe and complete a long list of minor jobs.


2025 Enrolments

Enrolments for Foundation for 2025 are now open and we encourage any families with children starting school next year to contact the school office to collect the correct forms. These can also be downloaded from https://www.skipps.vic.edu.au/community/enrolments/ 

 

As with last year, there is a statewide transition timeline which means that all Foundation applications must be submitted to the school by Friday 26th July in order to be guaranteed a place. We will notify families of the outcome of enrolment applications by Friday 9 August 2024.

 

We appreciate any families with younger siblings submitting their forms as soon as possible. This allows us to understand likely numbers for next year and so start to plan ahead for staff, class sizes, and our ability to offer places to families living outside our enrolment zone.

 

We are currently running regular school tours for prospective 2025 families. If you know of any relatives, friends or neighbours with a child starting school next year then please encourage them to book a tour at  https://compasstix.com/e/0rhar1rt70 to learn more about SKiPPS.


Sub-Committee Meetings

Our school has a number of permanent working groups called sub-committees. These groups are made up of staff members and dedicated parents who meet ten times a year with a focus to make our school a better place.

 

Sub-committees are open for anyone to join and rely on the energy, ideas and hard work of parents to improve the school experience for all of our students.

 

The groups are open for all parents to join and contribute to so feel free to come along to any of the following meetings.
