(parent calls included!)

Schools are always working out the best ways to work with parents in order to assist students. If

you have any medical or health specialist reports relating to your child’s learning,

vision, speech or hearing we would like to know about them.

In addition, physical and psychological conditions can also affect learning. If you have any of the

abovementioned reports that have not been shown to the school already, could you please let the

principal know about them as soon as possible. All information provided remains confidential.

HELP US TO ASSIST YOUR CHILD

TAKE HOME A BIG BROTHER OR BIG SISTER!

Let’s get organised early!

Give your children the wonderful opportunity to have an international big brother or big sister by hosting one of our exceptional international students arriving in Australia in January 2016 for their 5 or 10 month programs. Our international students from France, Germany, Italy, Austria Japan, the U.S.A and Canada will live as a local, attend a local secondary school, arrive with their own spending money and comprehensive insurance cover – all arranged by Southern Cross Cultural Exchange. Call your local coordinator today on: 0429406126 to request some student profiles, and capture the spirit of family and friendship!
