2024 Holding Classes
30 Jan 2024
We are looking forward to welcoming students in Years 1-6 back to school on Thursday 1st February. The new school year always brings with it much excitement and some nerves too!
At the beginning of each year, we have a number of students arrive to enrol, and a number more who don't return. For this reason, it is impossible for us to establish finalised classes for the first couple of weeks. For this reason, your child will be placed in a holding class for the first few weeks until numbers are confirmed.
Please read carefully the plan for the first day so that your child will know where to go at the start of the day, and you will know where to pick them up at the end of the day.
Lining up at the start of the day
Students are to line up with their 2023 class as they did last year. They will spend the morning with their 2023 classmates before being placed in their holding class partway through the day.
Pick up at the end of the day
As parents will be unaware of which classroom their child is in, teachers will bring students to a designated pick-up spot on Tuesday afternoon at 3:15.
2023 Stage 1 (Years 1&2) - Under the large COLA
2023 Stage 2 (Years 3&4) - Basketball court (in the case of rain, inside the hall)
2023 Stage 3 (Years 5&6) - Small COLA (next to OSH)
If your child attends OSH, uses Kiss&Drop, the bus or walks home independently, they will be allowed to take themselves to the necessary place. These pick-up locations are for the benefit of parents who collect their children from the classroom in the afternoon.
Your child will have a note with them which outlines the location of their holding classroom. This will be where they can be collected from in subsequent days. Please be aware that the holding class is not your child's confirmed 2024 class. We won't be able to confirm classes until mid-February when enrolments have settled. Your child will bring home another note once classes are confirmed.
Enjoy the last week of holidays!

Update Your Subscription Preferences!
30 Jan 2024
Dear Parents/Carers,
Please take the time to ensure your SZApp subscription preferences are up to date. This will mean that you won't miss any vital information.
Please note that subscriptions have been carried over from 2023, so for example if you were subscribed to Year 1 2023, you are now automatically subscribed to Year 2 2024.
If your child participates in Choir, PSSA, or other groups, PLEASE SUBSCRIBE TO THESE GROUPS ALSO to avoid missing notifications about training, rehearsals, etc.
Use the guides below to learn how to change your subscription preferences.
