FRIDAY 16th DECEMBER

As this will be our last formal day of classes, this will be a free dress day! Students are welcome to wear their most fabulous Christmas attire, ready to perform in the Extravaganza! We ask that clothing is Sunsmart and students please wear their school hats at all times outside.

Sunscreen should be applied at home and provided by families for re-application during the day.

 

Students will bring home all items from school on this day as Monday 19th December will be an alternate plan day.

Arriving Late - Late Pass Essential

If your child arrives at School after 8:50am please ensure they come to the office for a late pass. Please do not send them straight to their classroom. Thank you!

Collecting Your Child Early

Please collect before or after Recess & Lunch time as it is very hard to call a child up to the office over the noise of the playground. 

If you need to collect your child early for an appointment, please come to the office to sign them out. Due to our Child Safe practice, we are unable to have students waiting in the office, so

please allow time for us to call them up to the office after you have arrived.
