FROM THE APA

“COLOUR ME CRAZY 2021”

The second running of our school community event, “COLOUR ME CRAZY” (fun run/obstacle course),  will be held on August 1st from 10am. Registrations for this event will take place on the day from 9.30am (after Mass).

The course will begin in the small oval close to OSHC and travel around the school finishing back on the small oval. This is a fun event and no champions are crowned. You may walk, run, jog or skip your way around the course to celebrate our Catholic community that is Holy Spirit Catholic School. You do not need to be a ‘gladiator’ to complete our course. A sense of fun and enjoyment is the aim of this event.

BEFORE AND AFTER SCHOOL ROUTINES:

As we begin our new term, it is a great opportunity to remind ourselves of the routines to and from the school.

Gates open to the school at 7.45. There is no access into the school grounds before this time (not even through OSHC). If students arrive between 7.45 & 8am, they are to gather outside the Hall near the new administration building. At 8am, staff will supervise students in 2 areas: Bibi Goo for Prep-Yr 3 and the Hall for Yr4-6. At 8.15, students are dismissed from these areas to prepare for their day of learning opportunities. Gates are closed at 8.45am for the safety of our students and staff. Any visitors must now go through the front office to enter our school. 

At the end of the day, students are encouraged to move promptly to the waiting areas: Hatchett St , Church pick up and Albert St. These 3 areas are supervised by staff to ensure a safe departure through the pick up zones. Staff are on hand to call family names at Hatchett St and the Church to make for a smooth transition through the pick up area. If you have lost your laminated sign, please contact the office for a new one. 

Pick Up Areas

Our pick up areas in the afternoon are busy yet working well. This only happens when a few key areas are adhered to. 

 

  1. Please stay in your vehicle and move up in the lines. Students need to get themselves in the car. If they need assistance, please park and come to the waiting area to collect them.
  2. Students need to enter the car via the door closest to the sidewalk and not walk around the car into the line of traffic
  3. Please discuss with your child the need to be prompt to the waiting areas when released from class. Staff are dismissing students at 2.50pm and students should immediately move to the waiting areas.
  4. Albert Street is still a fantastic option. Staff are on duty at the end of the service road and supervise students inside the double gates. Great option to think about.

 

Thank you for assisting to keep our students safe.

Get in the spirit
