School Name Change and Logo update

Last year we surveyed the school community around the suggestion of a school name change coinciding with our 50th Birthday. Of those that responded 89% were in favour.

We will be moving forward shortly to seek feedback from our school community regarding possible name options and seeking your vote! Keep an eye out for emails and further information in the newsletter.

 

School Logo update – some of our students designed some options for new logos. When we have locked down the name change we will employ a graphic designer to bring our student design options to life and have our student vote on the new logo. Again we will keep you informed as these exciting changes move forward.

 

Excursions- Incursions and Camps

This year each class/year level are planning a number of exciting events linked with learning that take our students out into the community for excursions and camps.

We believe it is important to provide these experiences for our children and subsidise the costs to keep them at a reasonable price for families.

At times we teachers may ask for parent volunteers to help with supervision. All volunteers need to have a DCIS screening check which we can initiate the application for you. If interested please see one of the Leadership team – Sally, Scott or Sarah and we will follow up to get the ‘ball rolling.’

 

SCHOOL ARRIVAL TIME

Students are not permitted to be at school before 8.20am without adult supervision. We do not have staff on duty until 8.30am. If you need to drop your child early, please organise for them to attend OSHC. Thanks for your support with this.

 

EMERGENCY CONTACT DETAILS

This is a friendly reminder for you all to please make sure your emergency contact numbers, home address and medical information/medication is all up to date for your child/children at our school.

If you would like to advise the school of a change in phone numbers, emergency contacts, address, medical information or any other information you would like updated, please inform the school via email at dl.1066.info@schools.sa.edu.au

If you are notifying of a change of address, one of the following documents are required:

To update medical information, an updated Medical Plan is required from your Doctor.
