a soft brimmed hat that can get wet; sun safe clothing - either swimmers & a rashie, or a set of clothes that can get wet (no singlet tops); thongs/crocs/water shoes/an old pair of joggers to wear (just in case there are some burrs in the grass); towel; sunscreen and a spare bag to put wet belongings in.
Year 2 playground Transition
Year 2 students will now have the opportunity to spend two of their Snack Breaks each Tuesday & Thursday in the Primary playground to test out the bigger equipment, the larger playing spaces and acquaint themselves with the area and rules before they move to Year 3 in 2021. This will continue until Week 9.

Students must be in full Summer school uniform. Students must have black leather or vinyl shoes – not canvas. All students in K-6 must have a school bucket hat – no hat, no play. If your child does not have the correct uniform, please send in a note to their classroom teacher.
