Parents are asked to wait in the undercover area or on the seats around Block D rather than outside the classrooms before the final bell of the day as children easily become distracted.
 

Supervision 

Before School - Staff are rostered to supervise from 8.20 am.

Parents are encouraged not to send children earlier. Children who need to come earlier are to wait in the undercover area. Unless a teacher is present in the classroom, children are not to be in classes or on verandahs unsupervised.

 
Children travelling by bus are supervised at the bus stop each afternoon. Students are required to follow the Code of Conduct as set by the Queensland Dept. of Transport.
 

Children waiting for parents are to wait inside the grounds at either Beerburrum Road or Margaret Street. No child is to cross the road before parents arrive. Children are to report to the office if not collected shortly after dismissal time. For everyone's safety children at Margaret Street, if not collected by the time the Teachers bus/walking duty is completed, are to return to the office area and parents are asked to collect children from that area. Should parents not be able to be contacted, children registered with Outside School Hours Care will be supervised there.

 

Breaks

Morning Tea & Lunch Nutritional lunches are encouraged. It is important children are able to open their lunches. Tuckshop volunteers will not serve children with boiling water for noodles or heat up food brought from home for hygiene and safety reasons. All children are expected to be responsible for the disposing of their papers and food-scraps.
 
Munch & Crunch Break Classes break each morning for a short 10 minute break between 9.30am and 10am. This ‘Munch and Crunch’ break is to energise students. Students are to eat a small healthy fresh snack such as a piece of fruit or vegetable.
