Parent Information

EdSmart is our whole school communication tool, which is used to send excursion permission forms and information broadcasts to parents via email. This digital system replaces the printed forms that were formerly sent home for parents to complete and return. Instead of paper forms coming home in students’ schoolbags, parents are sent an email notification with a link to click that opens a secure web page version of the form to complete and submit. This can be done on a phone, tablet or computer (an internet connection is required).

Our school community enjoys many and varied events and activities such as camps, sleep overs and excursions. A highlight for many is Harmony Day, a day dedicated to celebrating diversity and living harmoniously.  Our End of Year Performance and Art Show/Display are biannual events. In addition, we also celebrate Grandparents/VIP Open Days and Learning Expos.

Children are required to wear a red top, black bottom, and red bucket hat as part of our school uniform.  Please refer to our school’s uniform policy.
