SCHOOL FEES
All school fees need to be finalised by Friday 4th December 2020. Payment of school fees are part of your enrolment obligation and receiving these are imperative for the running of the school.  If you are having trouble paying your school fees, please contact the school office to make an appointment to see Mrs West.

RETURNING TO SCHOOL FOLLOWING FLU-LIKE SYMPTOMS
Students who have been sick with flu-like symptoms defined by NSW Health as:

  • Fever
  • Coughing
  • Shortness of breath (difficulty breathing)
  • Sore Throat
  • Loss of smell or taste

are required to present a negative COVID test result before returning to school. 

Please provide the school with a copy of COVID test results, as we are required to add this information to our school COVID testing register which is updated on a daily basis. Please note that your child will need to be symptom free and have a negative COVID test result before returning to school. 

If a student is unwell with EXPANDED coronavirus symptoms (see list below), they are not required to present a negative COVID test before returning to school. These symptoms include:
  • Headache
  • Muscle or joint pain
  • Runny nose
  • Fatigue
  • Nausea
  • Vomitting or diarrhoea
  • Loss of Appetite
Parents / carers are encouraged to seek further medical advice.  Your child must not return to school until they are symptom free and showing no symptoms of illness.

Piano
We have a donated piano that is no longer playing in tune and the piano assessor has said it cannot be repaired. I have seen some creative people turn pianos into desks, coffee tables, benches etc and wondered if anyone would be interested in repurposing the piano? If you are interested, please contact our office. 

Below are some ideas that people have done, to repurpose a piano.

Semester 2 Reports will be published via Compass in Week 9  (11th December).   Semester Reports are no longer printed by the School (except for Year 5 and Year 6).  For those unable to download or print a copy of the school report, please notify the school in writing and a copy will be printed for you.

A reminder that a student profile exists on Compass only for the period of their enrolment at St Michael’s. When a student leaves St Michael's, their profile and semester reports will not be accessible. As students' academic reports are provided to families via Compass, it is important that parents of leaving students download and save the reports before the student leaves St Michael’s so that it remains accessible in the future (eg for high school application).
