Supervision Before and After School
Students are supervised from 8:40am each morning. Classroom doors open at 8:50am for students to unpack and get ready for a 9:00am start.
Students are supervised by staff after school from 3:20-3:30pm. Students must wait with their teacher until parents arrive. Students may only play on the playground until 3:30pm if their parent/guardian is present to supervise them. School gates will be closed at 3:30pm. Any students still at school after this time will need to wait in the office area. If you are running late, please call the school office to let us know.
Extreme Weather After School Pick Up
If there is extreme weather at school pick up time, the following changes to pick up will be enacted.
Years 3-6 students wait in the learning hub. Years F-2 wait in the hallway outside the art room/canteen. Parents/Guardians can come into the courtyard under the shelter and collect students from the junior building and make their way down the hallway area to the learning hub. Parents/Guardians are asked to exit down the hallway area towards the junior building and back out through the courtyard gates. This will prevent any congestion in the office.
