•  Dismissal and Pick-up Arrangements

 A big thank you to everyone for helping us adapt our pick up and drop off arrangements.  A couple of adjustments:

From Wednesday the 12 of August, siblings of Prep students using the Heal Street pick-up zone will be able to meet their brother or sister at the Heal Street gate at 2.55 p.m.  This will enable the early Prep parents to make the one pick up in the zone.  All other students will make their way to the pick-up zones at 3 p.m.

In the event of heavy rain, all year 1-6 students will be dismissed from classrooms.  We ask parents to remember to socially distance if waiting under the buildings for your child.

The Prep train does operate from 8.30 a.m. but it is not necessary for your child to be at the gate at this time.  Our lovely teacher aides operate the Prep train on a loop until 8.45 a.m.

• Parent Teacher Interviews

In term 2, we were unable to hold our parent teacher meetings due to Covid restrictions.  We were planning to reschedule for term 3.  Again the restrictions around Covid have meant that we can’t hold the face–to-face interviews that are so valuable to our school/home relationship.

We are pleased to announce that telephone interviews will be available this term as an opportunity to discuss report cards and learning goals for your child with your class teacher.

The logistics for these conversations will be communicated in next week’s newsletter.  These short interviews will be held on request and one interview will be given for each child unless there are exceptional circumstances.
