Well done to all Middle School students on their great to start to the 2024 year as we have settled back into timetabled classes. It’s been pleasing to hear positive feedback on how students have approached their learning during these first few weeks. Looking forward our Year 9 students will be engaging with the Morrisby Careers Program and completing NAPLAN testing in the coming weeks.

 

School Photos

Arthur Reed Photographers have completed our first photo day with a catch-up day to be scheduled for Monday 26 February. They are busy processing the photos already taken. Parents are encouraged to use the online portal which allows them to view and order photos.

 

Community expectations

We have received a handful of reports recently of some of our students not upholding all of our school values on their way to and from school. We ask that all parents/carers take the time to discuss with their child/ren the importance of respect for property, safe crossing of the roads, and appropriate conduct on public transport.

 

Student accident insurance, ambulance cover arrangements and private property brought to school

Parents/ carers are reminded that the Department of Education does not provide personal accident or ambulance cover for students. Parents and carers of students, who do not have private health insurance or ambulance cover, are responsible for paying the cost of medical treatment for their injured child.

Private property bought to the college by students, staff or visitors is not insured and the Department is not responsible for any loss or damage. This can include mobile phones, calculators, sporting equipment and cars parked on school premises.  It is recommended that parents/ carers consider insurance policies that can be purchased from commercial insurers.
