Page 8: Bathurst Public School€¦ · Sam Hamer 2nd - 10 years 50m freestyle, 1st - Junior breaststroke 3rd - Junior butterfly Tommy Platt 3rd - 10 years 50m freestyle Jemmia Luck 1st -

friends are very welcome to join us to celebrate our accomplishments.

Food Allergies - We do have several children at our school who have peanut allergies and have severe

reactions if exposed to this food. Parents are asked to be mindful of this when packing recess and

lunch and are encouraged not to send products which contain nuts in them to school.

A general reminder:-

All items of clothing and personal belongings should be clearly marked with your child’s

name.

All children require a broad brimmed hat each day as our school has a “No Hat, No Play”

policy.

When parents and friends come to the school during the day, they should present to the front

office on arrival. This is a Legal and Workplace Safety requirement and is followed for the

safety and security of all children and teachers.

We continue to encourage parents to make appointments to come and talk about your child’s

progress, problems that may arise, ideas etc. It is reminded that the education of your child is a

Page 9: Bathurst Public School€¦ · Sam Hamer 2nd - 10 years 50m freestyle, 1st - Junior breaststroke 3rd - Junior butterfly Tommy Platt 3rd - 10 years 50m freestyle Jemmia Luck 1st -

team effort with teachers and parents being the main stakeholders. With this in mind, it is an

important reminder that the parent/teacher relationship always needs to be cohesive and

supportive and one of mutual respect. I am sure we will continue to work with one another in a

positive manner.

All money coming to the school should be placed in a sealed envelope with your child’s name,

correct amount of money, class and what the money is for clearly written on the front. All

money should be sent directly to the front office at the school for processing.

Our School Newsletter will now be uploaded every Thursday so all parents receive information at the

same time. Please refer to our website to download the weekly newsletter.

If any parent has any concerns regarding any aspect of school life, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Online Payments

It is now possible for parents to make online payments to the school for amounts owing for students,

via a secure payment page hosted by Westpac. Payments can be made using either a Visa or

MasterCard credit or debit card, and can be made via computer, tablet or mobile phone. The payment

page is accessed from the front page of the schools website by selecting $ Make a payment.

This is a secure payment system hosted by Westpac to ensure that your credit/debit card details are

captured in a secure manner. These details are not passed back to the school.

Money and Notes

As all parents and children are aware, all money, when it comes to school for an event, goes directly to

the school office. This procedure is working well and we thank everyone for following this process.

When children and/or parents return permission notes to school, they also need to be taken to the

office. All notes will be collated and kept in the office and staff will pick up notes from the office after

the closing date. We are hoping this streamlines the process with notes.

Once payment is made, the parent permission note MUST be returned to the school. All

payments and permission notes must be made and returned by the cut-off date on the note.

Payment for an activity does not give permission for a student to be involved so please

remember to send the permission note back immediately.

All permission notes returned must include the reference number that is given upon payment.

School Contributions 2017

The Department of Education and Communities sets the contribution level. The funds are used to

purchase reading and maths materials for the benefit of all students. Without these contributions, we

are unable to provide resources of the highest quality that meet our expectations for your children.

Fees can be paid by sending cash or cheque in a sealed envelope with your child’s name, class and

School Fees written on it to the front office or by coming to the school and paying by cash, cheque or

EFTPOS. Fees can also be paid using POP. The fees are:

$50.00 (1 child)

$90.00 (2 children)

$120.00 (3 or more children)

In addition to the School Fees, each child is asked to pay a:

$15.00 levy for Technology (each child K-6)

$15 levy for resources

These levies will enable us to provide more software and classroom resources such as readers and

maths equipment for the children to use. We thank you for your invaluable contribution.

LOST PROPERTY and CLOTHING POOL

Clothing Pool is open Tuesday & Friday mornings from 8.30am-9.00am. If this is inconvenient, please

ring me to arrange another time.

Most items are for sale for a $2 donation per item purchased. Occasionally we get some school dresses

and these will be sold for a $5 donation. All money collected goes back into the school for resources.

If your child has out-grown their uniforms, drop them into the school office and we will recycle them

for you.

The Lost property basket is now emptied of Logo jumpers and hats. Children can come to clothing pool

on Tuesday & Friday mornings with named items being returned to them.

So, please write your child's name clearly on all clothes.

Any unclaimed non-uniform/ non-logo items will be sent to charity at the end of the term.
