It has been brought to our attention that students have not brought back their Art Smocks from last year. It needs to be returned to school asap, as it is required for Art each week.
Students in the school grounds before 8:45am need to be under parent supervision.
A teacher will be on duty in the yard from 8:45am. If there are students on the grounds before this time, they must be registered with OOSHC.
This is to ensure the safety and well being of your child.
