Parent Payment Arrangements For 2021
Dear Families, the Parent Payment Arrangements will look different for 2021 and you will notice there is now a separate charge for each year level. The Department of Education and Training have implemented new processes in relation to how we advise you of parent payment requests and the difference between Essential Student Learning Items, Optional Items and Voluntary Contributions. Please refer to the policy and the individual parent payment arrangements attached. These will also be available on our website and a hardcopy will be going home with your child. If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to give the school office a call.

Hats for term 4
A reminder that all students must wear a wide brimmed hat during term four. They are available from our School Uniform provider, Looking Smart at 7 Marine Parade, Ocean Grove Industrial Estate.
Student Medication
Due to hygiene requirements students who are Asthmatics must bring their own Ventolin and spacers to school each day.
We do have spare Ventolin here at the sick bay but are now unable to share spacers. Please inform your child's class teacher, via email that they have their Ventolin & spacer in their school bag.
Students who require medication such as antibiotics for a short term illness, must have a Medication Management form filled out by a parent or guardian and handed to the office along with the medication and personal medication applicator.
If your child requires a short term medication such as antibiotics, they must have a medication form filled out by a parent or guardian and have the medication stored at our school office, to be administered by a staff member. Students are not to have medications kept in their school bags.
