Principal's news

Dear mums, dads, carers and colleagues

A wet week saw some restrictions at play time but at least we made it outside most days.  It was only the persistent rain on Friday that saw us implement wet lunch protocols.  Our super teachers have just about completed student assessments and reports and these will be sent home via email towards the end of the school year.      

And with just 15 school days remaining for the 2024 school year, things are beginning to become very busy indeed.  Please make sure that you keep up by checking in with teachers and newsletters so that you don't miss anything.

     

Lost property give-away

On Monday 2 December and Tuesday 3 December there will be tables at the back entrance to the office with 2nd hand / lost uniforms (where we have been unable to identify an owner).  We would like these items to go to a good home.

  • These items are free.
  • All items are of a reasonable quality - what you see is what you get.
  • These items are not intended for resale but are intended to legitimately help our families.
  • There will be a limit of 1 item per type of uniform – eg 1 x shirt, 1 x pair shorts etc per student.
  • Not all items are available in all sizes.
  • Items are available on a first in basis. 
  • They will be available all day from 8.00am – 3.00pm or until collected.
  • We cannot hold uniform items.
