Parent Feedback

20 May 2020

Dear Parents,

I did send out a request last week for parents to write in some positive comments that they have experienced over the last three months of COVID 19 with staff.  This could be a range of staff from cleaners, gardeners Admin, teachers EA’s or a combination of all.  It only needs to be a sentence or two. I would like to print these off to read to staff on our Friday professional development day to reinforce the good work all areas of the school have done in adapting to the ever changing learning environment during this period.  Thankyou to those parents who have already made contact it is greatly appreciated.

John Roberts

20 May 2020

It has been a very sad week for our school and Boyup Brook community with the sudden passing of John.  He will always be remembered for his kindness and ability to bring out the best in everyone.  He will be sadly missed.  I would like to acknowledge the support and care our students and staff have shown for each other during this time.

John’s funeral is this Friday at 3.00pm and will be live streamed through Archer and Sons Funeral Homes https://www.archerandsons.com.au/    As a number of staff will want to be part of the funeral process, therefore we will be disbanding the normal timetable on Friday at 2.35 and High School students will participate in Countryweek training in the event we may be able to attend Countryweek this year.  If parents are wanting their child to be able to access the live streaming, you can pick up students early, they will just need to be signed out through the front office.  We will not be allowing student access to this site while at school.

We are also planning to have a short memorial service for John next Thursday at 3.00pm at the High School for the students and staff.  We will provide more information next week and it will not be compulsory for students to attend.

Can I also remind parents that next Friday 29 May is a professional development day for staff and no students to attend school.  This is the Friday of the long weekend.

Canteen Term 2

15 May 2020

The canteen has reopened! Thank you for all the orders this week and we hope that people continue to support it.

However for the canteen to run, we are reliant on volunteers to assist. A roster has been made up and please click on the link below for the Term 2 volunteers. We have enough families, that your family should only be rostered on once for the year. If you are unable to assist on the date that your name is listed, it is up to you to change with someone else. Please confirm to our Canteen Manager Bec Dewar on 0429 669 785 that you will be assisting your rostered date or your replacement.

Our canteen Manager has done the Govt COVID 19 Hygiene training and the menu currently doesn't include bento boxes, as the boxes are reusable and due to guidelines this is not recommended.

We would like some suggestions or comments on what you wish to see included in the canteen menu and this can be done on the Canteen Suggestion web form below.
