Dear Families,

This week we celebrated our amazing Student Support Officers. We are very fortunate to have such a great team of SSO's working at our school who ensure that our programs run smoothly and the students are well supported. They support many great school initiatives including the garden, mini lit, kitchen, Make and Design room, classroom differentiation, playgrounds, and administration. A very big thank you to Sue, Karen, Clare, Yvonne, Nicole, Suzie, Martine, Marieke, Vicky, Praveena, Brody, Jenny, Megan, and Keith. We also acknowledged our canteen staff; Michelle, Jody, and Carly as well as our talented Music providers; Pete, Alison, Andrew, Jan, and Katie. You make our school a better, richer, and happier place for learning.

School Uniform

Lately, we have noticed some students are wearing clothing that does not comply with our school uniform policy. Jeans, black clothing, and jumpers with brand logos are not permitted. We have an excellent uniform shop with a wide range of school uniform items available for purchase. You may also purchase uniform items via the order form from our website. A copy of our policy is attached below for your reference.

Parents are reminded that we have a contract with the church that provides parking for our families on the provision that we adhere to guidelines. Thank you to those families who are putting the safety of all as a first priority.

The Church car park is not a Kiss and Drop area. Parents who use the Church car park in the morning must park their car and accompany children into the school grounds.  In the afternoon, parents must park and walk into school grounds to collect their children.

Church representatives continue to remind us that parking is only permitted around the perimeter of the church property.

Parking next to the church building is strictly prohibited as this impacts the church foundations. The orange cones around the church are placed there to prevent parking.  A breach of the conditions could jeopardise our agreement with the church.

Please share the above information with Grandparents or other family members who are responsible for dropping off and picking up students from the school as this too is an issue.
