School Photos

School photos are tomorrow (Friday 1st of April) You will be able to place your order via Compass under the Community tab. Please see the attached flyer containing information on how to place your online order through Compass. If you are wanting to order a family sibling photo, orders will need to be placed prior to photo day, so that the photographer knows which sibling photos need to be taken on the day. Parents/Carers will have up to 1 week after photo day to place an order for school photos through Compass.
