Safety at pickup

We are aware of some dangerous instances occurring when parents are coming to pick up their children after school. Double parking, using incorrect parking spaces and not following the “lollypop ladies” directions all put the lives of our children at risk. The police have been informed and are starting to make increased patrols near the school at dismissal time. I have also observed parents encouraging their child to cross over the road to the middle parking bays without using the crossing. This is irresponsible and puts the child at risk.

Attendance

Every day counts: Our teachers are the best, but no matter how good they are, they cannot teach your child if they are not here. The knowledge or content they miss now can have a big influence on their future. Your child needs to be genuinely ill for them to miss school, if you or your child just want to have a day off, that is unacceptable!

School opinion survey

Every year Education Queensland asks students, staff and parents to give their opinion about various matters related to the running of the school. If you received a letter inviting you to participate can I please encourage you to go online and complete the survey, it closes this week. Your opinion counts!
