New Entrants
Before starting school, it is a great help if the children are able to:
Recognise their own name
Manage pencils, crayons, scissors
Manage their own clothes and belongings
Manage the toilet unassisted
Sit and listen
Follow simple instructions and directions (i.e. do what they are asked)
Helpful Tips
If you are intending to buy a bag for school, ensure that it is large enough to take a drink bottle, a lunch box, a reading folder, library books, jersey (jacket / swimming togs in season)
Children settle in better in the mornings if they are early enough to unpack themselves and have a little play. The bell is rung at 8:50am.
Please notify the school if your child is going to be absent by using the HERO app or contacting your child's teacher.
