I hope everyone has a good start to the year.
I just thought I would send a message to clarify one of our routines.
We have a number of new families in the school and we have a number of students who are now in the main building so some may be unaware of our routines.
The simple routine is that parents do not enter the school teaching area, that being past the glass doors and past the office area. We are one of the few schools that do not have a 'buzz in' system simply because of the nature of our building, so we rely on parents following this routine.
This process is in schools to protect students, create independence in our students and allow the teachers to prepare lessons and also to protect the private property of staff and students.
We do notify families when we have an open morning so that families can visit classrooms. We have an open morning on the first day of school and one usually towards the end of he term.
We thank everyone for following this safety routine at our school.
One more note
In Monday and Tuesday high temperatures are forecast. We judge the weather to see if the students can go out to play. Usually we find they sometimes they can go outside for recess but by lunchtime it is too hot so they stay inside. Occasionally, if it isn't too bad we may let them out for 10 minutes to have a quick run, get a drink etc. and then back inside. There is no standard rule on this and we just have to make a judgement call as to what the weather is like at the time.
Have a great weekend
Regards,
Anthony Hockey
