Lost Property
We have a significant amount of unnamed clothing regularly donated to charity.
Our lost property is managed by parent volunteers and we need your help to reduce this workload and loss of property.
You can help by:
- ensuring that all belongings are clearly marked with students' names and room numbers
- regularly check (and encourage your child/ren to check) for their lost property
- remember that it is the responsibility of students and families to regularly check lost property and reclaim items
When is unnamed lost property cleared and donated to charity?
- Last Friday of every month
Where is lost property?
In the Gym on the right hand side, as you walk in.
