PRINCIPAL POSITION

As was communicated to you earlier this week, Mrs Corrina Hartland will be on extended leave until the end of the year. We all wish Corrina a full recovery and look forward to her return on 2021.

As a result, Glenda Miller has been appointed to the Acting Principal position for the remainder of the year.

STAGGERED END OF DAY PICK UP TIMES

Thank you for assisting with the staggered pick up times. We ask that parents remain in cars and children will make their way to you. Students can only be dismissed at the earlier time if they are being picked up at 3.15pm.

As per usual, on the last day of term there will be an earlier dismissal time. Parents who have been collecting students at 3.15pm are asked to collect students at 2.15pm, and those who have been collecting at 3.25pm are asked to collect at 2.30pm.

FRUIT TREE DRIVE

Orders for our tree drive are now closed. We want to thank our school families and the wider community for their support. The fundraiser has been very successful again with our largest sales yet. We will let those people who have ordered know a delivery date and time once this is confirmed for us.

STUDENT AWARDS

Congratulations to the following students who are the award winners this week:
