Morning:

Supervision begins at 8:30am each morning. Students arrive from 8:30am, placing their bags at their assembly area.

If students arrive before 8:30am, they are directed to sit on the silver seats between the vegetable garden and the Stage 2 external doors, as they will be unsupervised.
 

Afternoon: 

  • Parent Pick Up: Students wait at the covered assembly area, while parents are able to wait inside the school beach entrance. The teacher on duty must sight parents (a wave helps us see you when your child is at the front of the line) before dismissing each child.
  • Bus lines assemble outside the hall (and inside the hall, if raining);
  • Students walking home exit via the side gate, with parents picking students up at Coronation Park. With permission, students can walk or ride home from this point.
  • Students attending After School Care wait to be picked up from the library.

Please note, no supervision is provided by staff after 3:30pm.

Our office opening hours are 8:30am – 3:30pm (Mon-Wed, Fri) and 9:00am – 3:30pm (Thurs)
