DROP OFF/PICK UP PARENT COLLECTION POINT
Student safety is always paramount to our daily routines and procedures on campus. You may have noticed that over the past few weeks some improvements have been made to our parent collection area outside Year 1, near the drop off zone.The latest addition is some fencing to section the area off between the drive thru waiting area and parent pick up. This is to assist students to have more space whilst waiting to be collected and a seperate designated area for parent collection near the garden wall and outdoor tables. This will also mean that the smaller pedestrian gate will become an entry/exit for staff and students only and families will now move in and out of this area via the double gates near the pedestrian crossing.
We thank you for your understanding and support of these changes and if you have questions or are unsure which way to go please check in with one of our staff on duty in this area so that they can assist and direct you as needed.

BUBBLE GUM/CHEWING GUM
Just a reminder that students are NOT permitted to have chewing gum or bubble gum during the school day. We have recently had an increased number of upper primary students bringing this to school and eating it throughout the day. Thank you for your support in reminding your child/ren this is not permitted.
