Library Bags

Each child is expected to bring to school a bag in which library books may be carried home. The popular size for these bags is 35 cm x 45 cm with a handle or a drawstring.

Library books may not be taken home without some sort of protection. Children will be notified of their library borrowing day. Bags are required for the protection of library and reading books.

Children will not be allowed to borrow school books without this protection.

Lost Property and Clothing

There are LOST PROPERTY bins in each teaching block.

Children are encouraged to be responsible with belongings but named articles will be returned to owners.

Please name all articles clearly. Items not claimed at the end of each term will be forwarded to charity.

Lunch Arrangements. Leaving School Grounds
