Week 4 Term 2

This Friday, some of Mr Semmler’s Squirrels will be running worship. If your child volunteers for this, you may wish to come along and support. 

Speaking of key dates, the Wednesday and Thursday evenings of Week 9 this term will be Restaurant nights. Please keep the date free so you can enjoy the Restaurant experience as planned and prepared by the students. (Mrs Eckermann’s class 26th June and Mr Semmler’s class the 27th June)
Stay tuned for more details.

New Information On Volunteer Checks
  • As from 1 July 2019 there will be stronger, nationally consistent screening laws for people wanting to work or volunteer with children in South Australia.  The new laws require people working or volunteering with children to have a valid working with children check (WWCC).     More info can be found at  https://screening.sa.gov.au/
  • Our school is registered to initiate this check.  To apply you will need to provide your full name, date of birth and an email address to Jenny (authorised person) in the office, and a government form will be emailed to you to complete and submit.  There is no cost to apply as a volunteer in a school.
  • If you have a current police clearance this will still be valid for a 3 year period, following this you will need to provide a WWCC check.
