Parent handbook online
We are currently having challenges with our website but the parent handbook will hopefully be online, this week in draft form on our website. It answers questions about uniform, transporting, our school rules and consequences, home-school communication and relationships, and information about digital devices within our school. Please let us know other questions you might have that we need to answer in the handbook and then we will finalise it for this year.
Documentation
New students to the school have received a pack of
documentation which includes cybersafety agreements, consent forms etc. Please
return these signed to the school as soon as possible. It will make June’s life
in the office so much more pleasant and the last thing we need is a grumpy
June.

We are looking forward to camp. We will have a pre-camp meeting to answer all your questions on Tuesday. We have an opportunity while we are small to build our sense of community as a school by inviting parents and families to join in. We are also wanting to gauge parent feeling and feedback about the participation of the junior class in camp either for a day trip or an overnight stay, and so value your attendance highly at this meeting.
