Future Calendars
More details about school holidays, including up to five years ahead, can be found on the Department of Education website - see www.education.wa.edu.au/future-term-dates
(NOTE: The dates on the DET website show the full term. In most instances, the start date is the return date for staff, whereas students return one day later.)
The school newsletter is an information service for parents and caregivers. We encourage you to read relevant sections (for example, your child's Room update) together with your child. It is emailed to all parents and carers. Families may ask the school to add other family members to the distribution list.
In the event of system failure, a hard copy will be sent home to each family. Newsletters are also available for download in pdf format - see below (some files are quite large).
