Request for materials and sewing items

We are very excited to have a Stage 6 Textiles and Design class starting this term. Mrs Rogers is busy making sure this class has all the necessary items they will need. She would be very interested to hear from anyone who may have excess material and sewing items/machines that they no longer need and would be willing to donate. If you do have something that might be of interest, please email Mrs Rogers at tanyarogers@ncs.nsw.edu.au Thank you.

Roadworks on Worrigee Road

We have been advised by Shoalhaven Council that Worrigee Road will be closed between Isa Road and Regalia Parade until Friday 21 October 2022.

This road closure will cause disruptions to several school bus services. Whilst it is the aim of the bus companies to provide the best service possible with minimal disruptions, there are likely to be delays to the service times.

Please refer to the below link to Shoalhaven Council’s website for further information.

2023 school travel applications are now open

Applications for student travel in 2023 opened from Monday 10 October 2022.

Students who need a School Opal Card or travel pass for 2023 can apply now. A new application will need to be submitted if they are applying for the first time, or if they are requesting an additional travel entitlement as a result of a new shared parental responsibility situation (e.g. joint custody).

Students who change address, school, campus location, have repeated a year or received an expiry notification from Transport for NSW for their school travel entitlement should renew or updatetheir details before the end of Term 4. This will ensure that schools can endorse applications, and entitlements remain valid for the start of the 2023 school year. 

School Opal Card holders will have the changes applied to their existing card.

If a student's distance eligibility has changed, based on their grade (i.e. Grade Two to Grade Three), the system will automatically update their entitlement if they meet the new criteria. If they do not meet the new eligibility criteria, we will send an expiry notification via email.

Students who have an entitlement approved under a medical condition that is due to expire will receive a notification advising them to re-apply.

Term Bus Passholders will receive a notification to re-apply.

Have you liked our new Facebook Page?

Facebook is a great way to keep up-to-date with things that are happening at our school. Unfortunately, due to some issues with our Facebook page, we have had to start a new one. We will continue to post on both pages until the end of this year, but to be sure you keep seeing the current posts going forward, please ensure you have liked the correct page.

Can you recommend us?

To help us establish this new page, we would love for some current parents to recommend us and leave a review on Facebook. To do this, you can click on the button below. Thank you.

COVID-19 Test Register Form

It is important that we continue to be vigilant in ensuring that staff and students do not attend school or work if they are unwell.  Please note the following:

• Students absent or sent home due to flu-like symptoms need to be tested for COVID-19.
• Staff and students must not return to school or work until they receive a negative COVID-19 result or have finished their 7-day isolation and are symptom-free.
• Staff and students who return a positive COVID-19 test result must complete the COVID-19 Test Register as soon as possible. This form will require you to upload a screenshot of the test results or photo of the RAHT test.
• If the student or staff member is still displaying ongoing symptoms that are typical of a condition such as seasonal allergic rhinitis (hay fever), they can provide a medical certificate from their GP to continue to attend school.
