Facilities & Capital Works 

Frances Hansen & Dr Denise Clarke 

CAPITAL WORKS

Thank you to staff who continue to advise when items in the Yaluk building are not working as they should.  One regular occurrence is  the arm disengaging from the door closer (see photo). If this is the case, put on maintenance log and Jacob will fix. If it is something else please advise Denise.

The gym scoreboard and the board controller both had new modems installed today.  A file from the scoreboard has been downloaded and sent to manufacturer. The manufacturer will contact our technician to re-connect shortly. 

FACILTIES

Gates around the school

Can staff please be aware of students and how they move through and use the gates around the school? The magnetic lock gates are being damaged by students who are pushing through the gate before they have been unlocked with a fob. If you are having an issue with a gate and students, please talk to your sub school leader and ask them to discuss the issue with me if needed.

 

Air conditionerscan staff please make sure AC units are turned off in classrooms and meeting spaces at the end of the day. TURN OFF the AC units in the OT room and climbing room as you leave at the end of each session.

 

Facilities job requests and notifications: 

Log any jobs for Maintenance on SharePoint. When logging jobs please provide the exact location of the door, window etc this will allow Jacob to repair the item even if there is no staff member in the room. Logging the item in detail will enable Jacob and I to schedule the works and ensure they are completed in a timely manner. 

 

Big Bin

The big bin  move has been deferred. DO NOT place items around the bin. If items do not fit in the bin take them back to your classroom and advise me and I will organise for it to be emptied. The bin is emptied every Wednesday morning before school commences.

 

Workplace inspections & reporting items

If you have a maintenance issue in your office or room these should be reported in the Maintenance log immediately. DO NOT wait until the end of term to report these issues as many need to be rectified as quickly as possible to avoid incidents.
