THANK YOU

Thank you again to all who attended and supported Nibbles on Knox. It was a great social event & a very successful fundraiser. At this stage the money raised is being put towards replacing the softfall under K-2 equipment. The quotes we have for this are very expensive & we hope to get a grant in 2024 to help reduce costs. We would then look at assigning this fundraising money towards other priorities at the school that have direct benefit to our students.

Thanks also to all the parents who came along to Boorowa Carnival. Your help is always appreciated. 

ATTENDANCE

A reminder that your child’s attendance at school must be a priority. The aim is to have a 90% attendance rate. That means children need to be here at least 45 days out of a possible 50 days per term. If your child misses 20 days in a school year that isequivalent to missing 4 weeks of schooling out of 40 week school year. This impacts their learning. A high attendance rate translates to better results at school. Learning begins at SPP at 9.20am and children who arrive consistently late are also losing valuable learning time.

Reminders - Please fill out the Compass app when your child is away as soon as possible. You must also sign in at the office if your child is late.

If you know your child will be away from school for more than a couple of days you must fill out the absentee note on the Compass app before you go or let your child’s teacher or the office know in writing. We will follow up if a child's absence is unexplained for more than 3 days. If your child is going to be away for more than 25 days in a row you must apply for extended leave.

STUDENT LEADERS

A note will be going home soon about the elections for 2024 School leaders.
