NAPLAN Testing

Year 3 & 5 Week 4 & 5

The NAPLAN testing begins for year 3 and 5 students on Tuesday 11th  May until Friday 21st May. Two catch-up days have been allocated to allow students who were absent during the above-mentioned dates to participate in NAPLAN testing.

Students work online in small groups in the library.  Our library will be closed during the testing.

Student absences from school

It is that time of the term when students start to get colds etc. and take more time of school due to illness.

Research tells us that in order to progress at school students need to attend 90% of the school year.  This provides continuity for learning.  Children stay home if they are sick.

Please use 0418 948 875 rather than email for daily or short absences including illness, appointments. the school as this system collects all our information on absences.

Staff Car Park

Just a reminder to all parents and caregivers.  The staff car park is not a place for parents to park. Staff at the school, when arriving and departing, do not expect to have to negotiate students being dropped off and picked up in the staff car park.   Please, consider the safety of your children.

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY

 We wish all Mothers everywhere a very special day on Sunday.   Thank you for all of the work that you do for your children.    

MONEY MATTERS !

School voluntary contributions are set in consultation with the School Council. It has been agreed that the voluntary contribution, per child, is $60.00 which will go towards the purchase of replacement library books, reading materials, computer consumables and photo copy paper. The more families who pay this voluntary contribution the more resources will be available to our students.         

Thank you to those parents and guardians who have paid their Voluntary Contributions.  To date we have collected approximately 52% of these contributions.  The school does offer the facility for Payment Plans for those who would like to make the contributions.  Please speak to the staff in the front office.    

The school has set up a Facebook page.  We will use the page to share our news and send reminders.  Please find us and like the page.
