• Supervision

  Fri 02 May 2025

  Just a reminder that the supervision of children is the parent/ carer’s responsibility once the children have been handed over at the end of the day.

  There are an increasing number of children playing in the MUGA unsupervised, and there have been occasions where a child has had an accident and been injured.

   

  Year 6 children with permission to walk home should be going home once they have left the building, and not hanging around in the playground after school.
