Lunch orders started back last Thursday the 12th of November. The students were very excited. Please ensure your child's payment is in a bag and your child's name and class name are written on it as well. As the lunch orders are outsourced, the orders will be picked up at 9.00am on Thursday. They will return the lunches at approximately 1:00pm on the same day. Late lunch order may not be filled.
Remembrance Day
Remembrance Day, we all paused for one minute’s silence at 11am.
Remembrance Day in Australia is dedicated to Australians who died as a result of war, particularly from World War I onwards. A minute of silence is dedicated to the deceased, especially for soldiers who died fighting to protect the nation. Remembrance Day is annually observed on November 11 although it is not a public holiday.
The poppy is a popular Remembrance Day symbol.
Road Safety
Road Safety It is very important that our students are safe on their way to and from school. Our parent community can help by:
Using the road crossings located at Warburton Hwy Launching Place near the Log Cabin that are manned by School Crossing Supervisors from the Yarra ranges Council.
Parking only in the designated spaces
Abiding by the 40km/h school zone
Modelling road safety in and around the community.
Student Attendance
A friendly reminder that the school day starts at 8:50am. Students arriving after 9.00am will need to go through the office to sign in on the Kiosk. Arriving on time enables students to calmly start their day and commence their learning with success. In the case where your child is unwell, please log their absence on Compass or you can call the school office.
