School Rules (Parents and Students)
School Hours
The school day is from 9.00am to 3pm, with two breaks:
  • Interval 10.40am to 11am
  • Lunch 12.30pm to 1.30pm.

 Office Hours
The school office is open between 8am and 3.30pm, except for the lunch hour. Mrs Alice Speck is our receptionist, and she will be available to help you with most questions or concerns. You can purchase school stationary at the office.

The office phone number is 939-8677, fax number 939-8018 and the email address is -email-

Absences/arriving late
If your child is away, please contact the school office between 8.30am and 9am. This is very important as it helps us ensure the safety of all pupils. We will follow up on any unreported absences.

If your child is late for school, they must report to the office so we can update the attendance records. If any child is regularly late, we will discuss this matter with their parents.

Leaving during the day
We realise that sometimes children need to leave school during the day. It is important that you tell the child's teacher if you are taking your child out of school, especially during interval or lunchtime. This helps us to be sure that your child is safe and has not gone missing.

Lunch Orders

Children are able to order their lunch from the school canteen on  Fridays. Money is to be placed in an envelope with the child's name, room number on the front. Please make sure that children have the correct money in the envelope as no change will be given.

Lunch order envelopes are to be posted through the slot in the hall kitchen door. The envelopes will be cleared at 9.15am on Friday mornings. Lunches will be delivered to the classrooms at 12.30pm.
A list of what can be ordered for lunch is available from the school office.
