STATEMENTS
Statements were sent home in the last two weeks. There has been a bit of confusion around them with credits showing as a negative figure ( - ). If your statement has a minus next to the totals at the bottom of the statement (see below) it means you have credit that can be spent on future invoices. This can be kept on your account for the following year or refunded if needed. If you’re unsure, make contact with the office on 5255 1340 as we’ll be happy to explain.
Sentral- Explain Unexplained Absences
Dear Families,

In celebration of World Children's Day come along to our family friendly 'One Planet' sandsculpting competition, get the whole family involved, invite your friends and neighbours for some fun in the sand and hopefully sun. This is not a professional competition by any means, it's about getting together as a community, having some fun and seeing if you can craft an image in the sand that talks about something you love and want to protect on this 'One Planet'. There will be speeches, music, and prizes from our amazing local businesses. Plus Southern Ocean Environmental Link (SOEL) will be there with their plastic recycling machine
