Celebration Day
The last day of school for 2018 is Friday 7 December and is known as Celebration Day. This is a day where students have the opportunity to choose from a selection of activities to participate in. These activities provide a variety of experiences with some having a cost attached, while others are free.
Students from Year 7-10 can choose from the available activities.
Year 11/12 students will have classes as per their timetable in periods 1 – 4 and then have a chance for games and activities in the afternoon.
If your child is not intending to attend school on this day, please let us know so we can plan accurately. Please also note that there are no changes or refunds possible once students have selected activities.
Bookings and payment for these activities can be made using the following link https://www.trybooking.com/YOJQ Please note bookings must still be made for free events, including if your child is not attending on the day.
Once your booking is confirmed you will be provided with a ticket which should be brought by each student on the day.
Bookings close on Friday 30 November.
NSW Health Fact Sheets
From time-to-time parents/guardians may need to refer to the NSW Health website for advice on childhood illnesses. The approaching school holiday break may be an ideal opportunity to eliminate head lice and manage re-infestation. Please note we have also had a report of scarlet fever in the local community, facts sheets are available from:
