Water Bottles

A number of students are coming to school without a water bottle. Please make sure you remind your child to pack one each morning, as due to the Covid-19 restrictions, there are no bubblers available for use.

Uniform

As of September 1, students may wear their Summer uniform. Children are not permitted to wear a mix of both - it must be all Summer or all Winter uniform.  All students are required to wear enclosed black leather or strong vinyl school shoes. Shoes should have substantial soles (ie: a thumb tack would not cause injury to the wearer) and have laces or a buckle or similar mechanism. Riding boot style black boots are acceptable in early years. High top shoes are not acceptable. Slip on shoes such as ballet flats and canvas shoes are not acceptable. On sports days students are required to wear supportive sport shoes. If for any reason your child is out of uniform, please send in a note to their classroom teacher. Uniform checks are usually done on a weekly basis. All items should be labelled - especially hats and jackets. Students are reminded to check the lost property bin if they are missing an item, which is located at the front office.
