Arriving at school
Your child
has a better opportunity to perform well if they arrive at school on time to
prepare for the school day and formal instruction which begins at 8.50am.
Students
and their parents arriving early are asked to congregate in the undercover area
under A Block until 8.35am. A staff member will release students at 8.35am
to move to classrooms and prepare for the day.
Departure from school
Students
are dismissed from class at 2.55pm (students catching buses are dismissed at 2.50pm). Once dismissed, students are to proceed home or attend afternoon programs as
directed by their parents/caregivers.
Should a
student not be collected by 3.05pm or an alternative time as planned by the
family, the students are to report to the office.
Parents/caregivers who collect students each afternoon in private vehicles are asked to
ensure that their children are not left waiting for long periods after they
have been dismissed.
Parents/caregivers are also asked to collect their children from their classroom or the
school gate and escort them to the car, especially students in Prep, Year 1 and
Year 2.
If arriving
before 2.55pm please wait quietly in one of our covered areas,
and then proceed to your child’s class after the 2.55pm bell. Please ensure the service provided by the pedestrian crossing and crossing
supervisor is used and that our students have good role models to follow.
Parents are
asked not to drive into the school for safety reasons.
Students collected early
Parents/caregivers wishing to
collect students from school early are required to:
Advise the school by note or phone of the intended early collection the day of, or prior to, the day of early collection.
Report to the administration office upon arrival to sign the child out.
Students will be required to attend the office to meet with parents/caregivers before departing the school.
