Early Departures / Late Arrivals

Parents/guardians will need to sign out students who are departing prior to the end of school in the attendance register. Similarly, late arrivals & students attending appointments throughout the day must also have their details recorded at the office. Late passes & sign out

cards will be given out and must be presented to the class teacher.

Attendance Register

All visitors to the school are required to sign the attendance register at reception and obtain a visitor’s badge which must be displayed

while on school premises. This procedure enables our children to readily identify authorised visitors to the school. Your co-operation in this matter is appreciated.

Medication Forms

Any students who require medication at school will need to have a medication form completed which details the type of medicine, time and dosage required. Please see office staff if your child requires medication to be dispensed during school hours.

Please read and obey the signs along the front of school to avoid fines.

2014 ENROLMENTS : OVERDUE Do you have a child who will be turning 5yrs by April 30th 2014? If so, please collect an enrolment form at reception. In order to secure a position for your child, you are required to return the enrolment form together with a copy of your child’s birth certificate & immunisation status as soon as possible. Please advise any of your friends or neighbours who intend to enrol that they must collect an enrolment pack from reception as soon as possible.

Compulsory Hats in Term 4

Just a reminder to parents it is compulsory for all students to wear

hats at all times when outside throughout Terms 1 and 4.

If students don’t have an approved school hat at school they are

only permitted to play under covered areas. Please also ensure hats

are clearly labelled so if it’s misplaced it can be returned to its

owner.
