All Excursions, Incursions, Classroom Events & Camps will be posted on Compass and parents will recieve a push notification. The cut off date for payment of these events is going to be 24 hours prior to the event. 

Please remember to go into your Parent Compass Portal to keep updated with these events. If you have any questions or concerns please call our office.

Second Hand Uniform Needed

Our second hand uniform stock is getting low. If you have any school uniform that is in good condition and no longer needed, please drop it into our office.

Working With Children Check

It is encouraged that all parents apply for a voluntary Working With Children check. These cards are free of charge and a mandatory requirement for all adults who wish to volunteer at the school in any capacity.

You can now fill WWC Check application online. Please go to http://www.workingwithchildren.vic.gov.au/

After you fill out your details, print out your application form and take it to an Australia Post outlet with your proof of identity and a passport-size photo for processing.

Please bring  your WWCC card to our school office when you receive it and we will do an induction so that you can attend excursions and help in the classroom for 2023

This induction only takes 5 minutes, is only done once a year, and is conducted from our school office.

School Hours

Start: 8:45am, Finish 3:15pm     Recess 10:45-11:20am,     Lunch 1:15-2:15pm

Please ensure your child/children are at school prior to 8:45am. Students should not arrive before 8.30am and need to be collected by 3.30pm as this is when the school is supervised.

All students who arrive late must sign in at the office and take a late pass to the teacher.

Students leaving early must be signed out by a parent at the office. 

If your child is leaving school early could you please email the class teacher, giving a time that you would like your child to be at the office ready for pick up. Unfortunately, we are unable to call students over the intercom, unless it is recess, lunchtime or from 3pm.

Labeling Personal Items

Please check that your child’s school uniform & all lunch containers have their names clearly marked on them. We often have a lot of unnamed items in our lost property basket that could easily be returned to their rightful owners if they were named! 

Our lost property basket is located at the front of our office if you need to take a look.
