House Keeping Notices
Consent & Payment for Compass Events
Just a reminder that in line with the Department of Education, it is Coburg High School's policy that all events close at 11:59pm, two days prior to the date of the event. All families will be given sufficient time to make payments for excursions/camps via Compass and will be provided with excursion information clearly stating payment finalisation dates. Children whose payment have not been finalised at least 48 hours prior to the departure date will not be allowed to attend unless alternative payment arrangements have been organised with the Business Manager. Having guaranteed numbers allows schools to organise transport, staff classes and adhere to ratio requirements.
Uniform
In response to student demand for warmer winter attire, a Coburg High School jumper has been an option for students this year and students are encouraged to purchase a jumper as an alternative to wearing long-sleeved tops underneath polo shirts. Students wearing long sleeved tops must wear plain blue, black or white tops with no patterns or branding.
Students and families are reminded that the Coburg High School uniform does not include grey pants or long-sleeved tops. Students can wear neat, plain blue or black pants that do not have highly visible branding. Hooded jumpers, leggings and athletic "Skins" are not allowed.
When students are unable to wear their uniform to school, they must report to the Building A Staffroom where uniform will be provided.
Uniform can be purchased from Lowes and Northland Shopping Centre and Broadmeadows Shopping Centre
No Gum Please!
Chewing gum is banned at Coburg High School for the simple fact that it ends up on our paths, floors, tables and even our shoes. Please support the school by ensuring that students are not being provided with chewing gum, even if they claim it's for before and after school... it often isn't!
Asthma Action Plans
If your child has been diagnosed with Asthma, we required to have a current Asthma Plan on file from your GP. If you already have handed one in then please disregard this notice. Asthma plans can be submitted either via email at info@coburg.vic.edu.au or can be handed in to Reception.
**Please note Asthma Plans are only valid for 12 months and must be updated Annually**

Centenary of Coburg High School Publication
Copies of the wonderful publication 'Loyal in All: Centenary of Coburg High School 1916 - 2016' by two of our alumni, Elisabeth Grove and Laura Donati, are available for purchase at the school reception, until stocks run out. The book provides a fascinating and comprehensive history of Coburg High School from its establishment in 1916 on Bell Street through to our re-established Coburg High School here on Urquhart Street.
For more information about our alumni, there is a dedicated website run by a committee of formers students: http://www.coburghighhistorical.org
