MINI VINNIES WINTER APPEAL

Our Mini Vinnie volunteers are supporting a collection for this years winter appeal, students can wear casual clothing on Thursday 15th June.  Participating students are asked to donate a non-perishable item from their home pantry to help support those in need in our local community.

POKEMON AND AFL TRADING CARDS

We’ve recently noted that a number of students are bringing Pokemon and AFL cards to school. Parents, could you please make sure that your child leaves their trading cards at home as they cause many issues on the yard and in the classroom. Our school takes no responsibility for traded, lost or misplaced cards.

DROPPING STUDENTS AT SCHOOL BEFORE 8.30AM

Parents are reminded that students must not be dropped off at school, and left unsupervised prior to the school gate opening at 8.30am.  If you need to drop your children off prior to 8.30am, we recommend that you contact Camp Australia and access before school care.

STUDENT ABSENCES 

PARENTS WORKING ONSITE AT ST ITAS

A reminder to all parents who are entering the school as classroom helpers or parent support during speech and or OT sessions;

• You must enter via the Admin Office and sign in via the IPad, where you will be required to enter your Working with Children (WWC) details.
• Please ensure you have your WWC card with you at all times as it is a requirement of DOSCEL that you carry this card with you whilst you are onsite. 

ST ITAS COVID UPDATE

We have had several staff, and many students away with COVID or COVID like symptoms without testing positive.

Last Friday we sent home COVID-19 rapid test kits with the oldest child in each family. I'd like to thank all families for supporting us through this current outbreak. We really appreciate parents alerting us to any positive tests that your children have as it helps us keep everyone in our school community safe and well. 

• If your child does test positive to Covid they are required to spend 5 days at home before returning to school.
• If your child is displaying flu like symptoms but not testing positive to Covid please keep them at home until all symptoms have cleared.
• The Department of Health recommends that all Victorians report their positive RAT result to the Department of Health online, or by calling 1800 675 398.

We urge all in our school community to stay well and most importantly stay safe.

DISABLED CAR PARK

We have a number of parents parking in the disabled spaces out the front of the school. Please do not use these car parks unless you have a disabled sticker on display.
