ICY POLES
Icy poles are available for students to purchase each Wednesday for $1. Many thanks to Kim Gleeson who purchases the icy poles on behalf of the Parents and Friends Association.
HOT WEATHER POLICY
As a Sunsmart school we require all students to wear their school hat when they are outside during terms 1 and 4. Of course students have the option to wear their hat during term 2 and 3. Should the temperature reach 34 degrees students will remain indoors during recess and lunchtime. We have already activated the 34 degree rule a few times this term. A reminder that students need to apply sunscreen before coming to school. It’s important that the students bring along sunscreen to school so that they can reapply during the day.
