SCHOOL COMMUNICATIONS

To ensure that your questions or communication is addressed promptly, please use the school's email, rather than an individual's email. This email is monitored by various staff throughout the day:

READY FOR SCHOOL!

We have an ongoing amount of parents dropping off items late to the office for their child. To minimise disruptions to students and staff throughout the school day, please ensure that your child arrives on time and has all the items they need for the day. This includes:-

  • Correct clothing
  • Hat
  • Lunch/snack/ water bottle
  • Home time instructions ie; who is picking them up or are they going to aftercare, extra curricula activities extra
  • Show and tell items
  • Library bag

Likewise keeping appointments to outside of school hours also ensures that students are not missing vital learning time.

PLEASE COLLECT

There are still some containers left in the office from the welcome morning tea at the beginning of term. Please collect as soon as possible. Thanks!

 

Also there are a large amount of lunch boxes and water bottles in the Lost & Found.
