Office hours
The school office opens at 8.00am and closes at 3.30pm.
Arrival at school
Students are not to arrive at school prior to 8.30am. Students who arrive at school before 8.30am sit at the chess board until the bell rings at 8.30am. Staff cannot be responsible for the care and well-being of students who arrive at school before this time. For this reason, it is not advisable for children to arrive at school earlier than necessary. Students who arrive at school before this time should be enrolled at our Outside School Hours Care program, School’s Out.
