Principal's Notes
Thank you to the Parents & Friends Committee
Last week the Parents & Friends Committee held their last meeting for the year. I would like to offer my thanks once again for the commitment of time and energy to the school by the Parents & Friends Committee for 2021. It has been a challenging year that has been constricting for both the P&F and the school community. I thank the Committee for the support they have shown our school community, particularly our staff. As a committee they have strived to face the challenges in their path and come up with solutions to ensure that we continue to be a welcoming and caring community.
P&F Virtual Disco Party
Don’t forget tomorrow Thursday 18th November is the P&F Virtual Disco Party. Log in details will sent home to every family today and can be accessed by SZapp and Compass.
Library Stocktake
A reminder that all library books must be returned at the end of the year. Please ensure your child’s library books are returned next week for the upcoming Library stock take.
Safety in Our School Car Park
We all want our children to arrive to school safely and enjoy their day. Some of us are also busy running between home, work, and other commitments before and after school. Sometimes in our own rush and hurry we can take shortcuts. I understand this temptation.
However, it is often rushing and shortcuts that create the most risk and when children, vehicles and peak hours are concerned those risks become much higher and can have terrible consequences. No one plans to have an accident. They are unintentional, often avoidable, and always regrettable. Please ensure when using our school carpark, you park in the designated carparks and follow the correct direction of the traffic. Please be aware of all those around you and proceed cautiously when moving through the carpark at a pickup time.
