25.01.2022 PUPIL FREE DAY : Just a reminder that there will be no kindy or Occasional care tomorrow Monday 7th August as staff will be participating in some professional learning. Thank you.

25.01.2022 Thank you for everyone’s patience while our new build is happening in the beyond space. Please be safe while moving around the area. Today it was very exciting to see cement mixers coming and cement being poured. Small groups of children have been visiting closer to the area and doing some documentation on what they are observing.

24.01.2022 OCCASIONAL CARE: Occasional Care can only be offered once a week if a spot is available, we have many families accessing Occasional Care so normally care can only be provided once a fortnight. Please remember to ring and cancel if you can not make your booked time so this spot can be offered to someone else. Fees are payable on arrival and correct money is appreciated. Please remember to bring a wide brim hat for your child so they can play outside in term 4. The children have been having fun exploring all the new learning spaces this term.

23.01.2022 Some helpful information if you need to take your child for a Covid-19 test.
