Dear Parents and Carers, 

We are excited to see our Years 1-6 students return to school next Thursday and Kindergarten next Friday. The Executive Team, teachers, support staff and I are working hard to ensure we are ready with wonderful, engaging experiences for our students. 

A few school reminders:

*Students in Years 1- 6 return Thursday 1st February. 

*Playground supervision from 8:35a.m. Classes start at 9:05a.m and end at 3:05p.m. 

*Students should line up at the same place they did at the end of 2023. Please make a place to meet your child after school as they will move rooms during the day. 

*Please explain to your child that he/she will go back into their 'old' 2023 class for a period of time on the first day. Then they will move to their new TEMPORARY class. Information will be sent home on day one about temporary classes and new classrooms.
