Arriving at school
Your child has a better opportunity to perform well if they arrive at school on time to prepare for the school day and formal instruction which begins at 8:50am.
For this reason we ask all parents/carers to ensure children arrive at school prior to the 8:5am0 start time. Gates to the school open at 8:15am.
Students are required to sit in their assigned under cover area until the teacher arrives to collect them. We also offer the school Walking Club from 8:15am in the morning for all ages across the school. Students can meet staff on the Senior Oval and complete laps in the morning to put themselves in the running for our termly prizes.
Departure from school
Students are dismissed at 3:00pm. Once dismissed, students are to proceed home or attend afternoon programs as directed by their parents/carers.
Students are to report to the office if they are not collected at the 3:25pm dismissal time.
Parents/carers who collect students each afternoon in private vehicles are asked to ensure that their children are not left waiting for long periods after they have been dismissed. Since our carpark is not school owned and is Council land, we ask that parents and carers follow the normal road rules and signage. We ask that the drop-off zone is used correctly and if parents and carers need to leave their car, please ensure this is only done when the school carpark has been accessed.
Please ensure the service provided by the pedestrian crossing and crossing supervisor is used and that our students are safe at all times.
Parents are asked not to drive into the school for safety reasons.
Early Departure from School
Parents/carers wishing to collect students from school early are required to:
Advise the school by email or phone of the intended early collection the day of, or prior to, the day of early collection. Please note, email contact is preferred when notifying the Administration Office - admin@morayfieldeastss.eq.edu.au.
Report to the Administration Office upon arrival to sign the child out. An Early Departure Authorisation slip will be issued.
Present the Early Departure Authorisation slip to the classroom teacher when collecting the child.
If a person other than the parents/carers is to collect a child early from school, they will require identification and need to be listed on your child’s file as an approved emergency contact or family member.
Late Arrival at School
Children who arrive at school after 9:00am must report to the office to collect a Late Arrival Authorisation slip before going to their classroom.
Friday Morning Assembly
Our school assemblies are generally split into P-2 and 3-6. Please note, these occur on alternate weeks throughout the term. An updated assembly roster is published each term.
Whole School Assembly
Please see the newsletter or Facebook for exact dates. These assemblies are usually for large celebrations or ceremonies such as ANZAC Day and NAIDOC Week.
Parents and carers are invited to attend assembly to celebrate our students’ success and to keep informed of school life generally.
Academic Excellence Assemblies
These occur twice a year and is a wonderful opportunity for us as a school to come together and celebrate the wonderful academic achievements of our students from across the school. Parents and carers will be notified if their child receives an award.
