Routines

Students should not be arriving at school prior to 8:30am when Yard Duty begins.  For the safety of all students we ask that parents make arrangements so that children are not left unsupervised in the school yard. 

The school provides a before school care service to ensure that all students are supervised appropriately before 8:30am. Please contact the OHSC on 84435308 to arrange enrolment.

If there is an occasion when students arrive close to, but before 8:30am, it is expected that they wait on the seats next to the flag poles at the front of the school.

Torrens classroom doors will be opened at 8:50am allowing students to sign in on their teacher's computers and organise themselves for the day. If students arrive after 9.00am, they need to sign in at the front office before coming to class. 

Due to COVID-19, parents are requested to refrain from entering the Torrens building throughout the day. If you need to personally speak to one of the teachers, families are politely asked to make an appointment through emails or phone for more in-depth discussions. 

Communication

Parents can communicate via email. All absences must be explained.
