School Photos
The plan for school photo distribution changed slightly with the announcement of the return to school. Based on those that were prepared for sending first, the packs with Junior School, Senior School siblings and family photos have been sent out to families.
Senior School students without a sibling in the Junior School will now have received their photos upon returning to school.
We apologise for any inconvenience caused with this process and are pleased school photos have now been distributed to families.
Thank you once again to our Parents and Friends’ Association for their generous support and all their work on the distribution of photos.
