IMPORTANT UPDATES 

SCHOOL PHOTOS - CHANGE OF DATE
We have been advised by The School Photographer that due to the changes in COVID19 restrictions, the date for our school photos will now be Tuesday 17th August 2021 (subject to any further  restrictions due to Covid19).  All children are to wear their FULL WINTER UNIFORM on this day – not sport uniform.

Photo envelopes were sent home earlier this week.  Payment can be made by cash or online.  Individualised payment envelopes with cash or online payment details, can be returned to the school on or before 16th August 2021.  We encourage parents to pay online before the school photography day.  See your photo envelope for further details.

Sibling photo envelopes can be collected from the school office.

FRESH STARTS CANTEEN HUB

Unfortunately the canteen hub has not proved financially viable and we have been advised that this service will no longer be offered and accordingly the canteen has closed.  Therefore we do not have any canteen service on the school site.  Please ensure that students bring their lunch and water each day. 
Any parents who have money held with Quickcliq will be able to cancel their account and obtain a refund.  You need to log in to your Quickclieq  account, cancel the account and funds will be returned to you.  See image below.

SIGN IN PROCEDURES FOR PARENTS/VISITORS
With the exception of students, every person who enters the school will need to sign in using the ServiceNSW app in addition to our existingiPad sign-in process. Parents/carers who are dropping off or picking up students outside the school gates do not need to sign in or use the Service NSW QR code.

CHILDREN WITH FLU LIKE SYMPTOMS
Following the recent urging of health authorities for every person to get tested with even the mildest of COVID-19 symptoms, our requirements have been updated to require a negative COVID test for ALL common and expanded coronavirus symptoms (as listed below).

We can all continue to play our part in keeping our schools and one another safe, including by:

  • Keeping your child home when they are unwell, even with very mild symptoms.
  • Informing the school immediately if your child is self-isolating or undergoing testing, and informing us of the result as soon as possible.
  • Following sickness with flu-like symptoms, ensuring your child is free of symptoms and can present a negative COVID-19 test, before they return to school.
  • When entering an medical absence into COMPASS, we ask parents to kindly also provide a description of the absence: eg; tonsilitis, medical appointment, stomach bug, cough etc.  As a condition of our Covid Plan, we are required to check the reasons daily to ensure the safety of all.  If your child has had a COVID test you are required to send a copy of the result (screen shot is acceptable) prior to your child returning to school.  This data is added to a CEO database to assist with contact tracing.
