UNIFORMS - JUMPERS
Now that the weather is becoming cooler, students are wearing jumpers. Our uniform policy states students can wear a royal blue jumper or jacket and royal blue tracksuit pants. Parents can purchase jumpers from the uniform shop. Uniforms can be purchased on our Flexischools App or at the Office between 8:00am-3:30pm.
Please name your child’s jumper.
We have for sale some second hand uniforms that were kindly donated by the Bowen State School community. We have School Polos, Sport Polos, Jumpers and Skorts. Feel free to come and have a browse outside of the Office.
SUPPORTING YOUR CHILD
It is fantastic to see so many students playing games on the ovals. Rules of the games are often interrupted differently and at times students can disagree. Staff are actively supervising and supporting students to manage these situations. If your child speaks with you about an incident during play time, please remind them to report any incident to the staff on duty wearing the orange vests. When students report an incident it can be sorted immediately and avoids an escalation of emotions.
Please remind your child each day to report any incidents to the staff wearing orange vests!!
