Important Message

Any student leaving Kildare Catholic College during the year to attend another school, TAFE or commence full time employment needs to collect a “Leavers Form” from the front office and have it signed by the Resource Centre, Canteen, House Coordinator, and the Principal. The student must then have this form signed by their parent/guardian and returned to the front office.

Application for Leave

If students need to be absent from school for five or more days they now need to obtain approval from the Principal and complete an Application For Leave Form. This has been put in place by the government and we need to commit to this procedure. Forms are available at the front office or downloaded below. If approval is not given or sought from the Principal, students will be marked as an unexplained absence.

Medical Plans

NSW Department of Education advises that:

"When students need help with health issues at school, parents may need to consult with their medical practitioner about the implications of the child's health condition for their schooling and any actions that need to occur during the school day. Parents need to convey relevant information from the medical practitioner to the principal in writing."

If your child has a medical plan please insure that the college has a copy. If you need more information please contact Natalie O'Reilly on (02) 6925 3388 or oreillyn@ww.catholic.edu.au

School Crossing Supervisor – Wagga Wagga Local Government Area

2x Casual positions - Work within your community

The Role

An important person in a child’s school life is the School Crossing Supervisor, who ensures they cross the road safely. The role requires minimal hours out of your day and gives something worthwhile back to the community. The hours are usually 8:00am to 9:30am and/or 2:30 to 4:00pm Monday to Friday during school terms. You may be required to work morning, afternoon, both shifts and no shifts. As a casual you will be filling in for existing part-time staff as required. The base rate is $21.91 - $26.29 per hour.

All the qualifications you need are community spirit, good communication skills, an alert and professional attitude to work and a reliable personality. The casual hours and school holidays would suit a parent or grandparent, a retiree or anyone wanting meaningful work — but not full-time.

Training for your key responsibilities of directing traffic to stop at the designated crossing and giving clear instructions to infants and primary school students to cross the road safely, will be provided.

For further information regarding this position, please contact HR Advisory on 1300 305 855 and quote 000055SI or visit iworkfor.nsw.gov.au to apply

Dear parents and students please be vigilant around your school during pickup and drop-off times, mornings and afternoons, it would be appreciated.

Drivers have been observed to park within the mandatory 10 metres No Stopping zones at adjacent intersections waiting for children while other drivers are now using the Coleman Street Bus Zone, prior to the Traffic Light intersection of Edmondson Ave, as a turning lane, prohibiting the school buses from picking up children. Understandably not all offending vehicles may not be associated with the school, however, any assistance from the school in highlighting such matters of concern would be appreciated.

Mr Cahill | Traffic Officer
