Term 1, Week5 Monday, 24th February, 2014. From The Principal’s Desk Dear Parents, The school crossing on Sandringham Street remains a concern. Parents are encouraged to cross with their children at the supervised crossing. This should ensure the safety of the children. Some drivers continue to double park to allow their child/children to get in their car. This is a traﬃc oﬀence with a heavy fine. The safety of students is a paramount concern. Students who are not collected by parents by 3.25pm are moved to the front veranda where they are under supervision. When they are not collected by 3.40pm a call is made to a parent. Should parents be unable to collect their child/ children at 3.10pm please call the school on 9610 1311. Sun Safe School WANTED

It is wonderful to see the Kindergarten girls and boys so happy at school and being involved in lessons that they enjoy. Students in all classes are working well in school routine. Thank you to parents for ensuring that their child/children do homework. This has a long term benefit to a child as they become well‐organised for future learning.
