There is also a large bulletin board installed outside the gym doors for sports, clubs and teams information, schedules and updates.
Please contact the teacher listed beside each activity for more information about participating.
You may have noticed TV monitors installed in the school entrance foyer. These will be used for things such as showcasing student work and class activities, promoting school events and council events, sharing safety and security notices and more. They’ll go a long way to fulfilling the priority of communicating and engaging the school community, as well as help us to reduce paper use and posters.
Our new Notice Board has been ordered and it will soon make its debut, in the windows beside the main entrance to the school. This prominent location will make it easy for parents to see what’s happening at school without having to go inside.
