Educational excursions and visiting artists are an important aspect of the school curriculum.  Parents are asked to encourage their child’s participation in these activities.  Whenever possible, a small number of parents are invited to accompany excursion groups.  However, it is school policy that pre-school children cannot be taken on excursions.  Parents are always given prior notice of excursions.

To be eligible to attend excursions, parents must complete the Parent Induction Program and hold a current Working with Children Check.

Please note that parent helpers are selected at random and may not be placed with their own child throughout the day.

The Department of Education & Early Childhood Development requires that parents sign a “permission to attend” for each excursion.  Included on this form is also a statement of permission for the teacher in charge to seek medical advice for your child if necessary.  This is not intended to frighten parents, but to enable teachers to act quickly on the rare occasions that this may be necessary.

All Payments and consent are to be made via Compass by the deadline.

If financial considerations are relevant to you at any time, please contact the school  “prior to the deadline.”   We will assist in making personal arrangements for you.
