Principal’s Report

Welcome Back!

All schools returned to full on-campus learning as of

Monday 25 May. All school activities and operations

will be in line with Australian Health Protection

Principal Committee (AHPPC) and NSW Health

guidelines as applicable.

School students are encouraged to follow physical

distancing guidelines, and should follow good hygiene

practices like:

Regularly washing hands

Avoiding sharing drinks or food

Coughing or sneezing into your elbow,

or a tissue which should be discarded

immediately

School attendance

All students should be at school unless:

They have a medical certificate which states

that they are unable to return to school due to

an ongoing medical condition

They are currently unwell.

Students who have a medical certificate to stay at

home will be supported to learn from home in line with

regular procedures if they are able to. These regular

procedures are different to what was offered during

the learning from home period. If you require work to

be provided to your child whilst they are at home due

to an underlying health condition, you should contact

the school for assistance.

Please note, students who live with a family member in

one of the categories identified as being at increased

risk by the AHPPC, should attend school unless a

medical practitioner advises otherwise in writing.

If your child is unwell, do not send them to school. If

they are unwell at school you or your nominated

emergency contact will need to collect them

immediately. Please make sure your contact details are

up to date.

If a student is absent without a medical reason for

more than three days, this will be recorded as an

unauthorised absence and followed up by the school.

If you need any support to get your child back to school,

please contact your school.

Semester 1 Assessment and Reports

Your child has been assessed during the learning from

home period and will receive additional assessment

now that they have returned to school.

You will receive your child’s semester 1 report by the

end of this Term.

This will be a simplified version of the report you

normally receive.

School cleaning and hygiene

supplies

All schools have received additional cleaning in line

with the AHPPC guidelines and advice from NSW

Health. Targeted areas include high-touch areas and

other hard surfaces, door handles, lockers, light

switches and handrails in stairways and movement

areas. There will also be additional cleaning of toilets

and bubblers and topping up of supplies like soap.

If you are sick-please stay at home

If your child is unwell, please do not send them to

school. If they are unwell at school you or your

nominated emergency contact will need to collect

them immediately. Please make sure your contact

details are up to date

Head Lice

We have had quite a few reports of head lice in several

classes lately. The departmental procedure when head

lice have been sighted/ reported, is to notify via a letter

to all students in the class and recommend that

parents do a thorough check of their child’s hair. We

understand the frustration for parents if their child has

had several cases, after they have been diligent in

treating their child. It is vitally important that ALL

parents check their child’s hair once a notification is

sent home, and to treat appropriately in order to

ensure no further outbreaks. I have requested that

teachers inform me if they identify head lice in a child’s

hair, and will be contacting those parents individually

to advise of this. Your assistance in this matter is

greatly appreciated.

Crossing Roads Safely

If the school crossing is in operation (orange flags &

flashing lights) you must not cross the road within 20

metres of the crossing… It is against the law… Please

note that the school crossing is not a zebra crossing

and cars do not always stop. Cars should be prepared

to stop at the crossing when it is in operation (flashing

Lights) Please use the school crossing after checking

for cars as it is the safest place to cross.

This applies to ADULTS and CHILDREN

So please set a good example and use the school

crossing when the flags and lights are displayed.

Winter Uniform Policy

Please ensure your child is wearing the correct winter

uniform:

Girls:

Winter tunic or royal blue slacks – Not blue leggings

Long-sleeved white shirt

School jumper with logo

Black shoes & white socks

Royal blue school winter jackets

Boys:

Sports uniform ie sports shirts, school tracksuit pants,

joggers should only be worn PE & sport days.

Because it is blue, doesn’t mean that it is uniform!!

Winter coats, gloves, scarfs & beanies must be royal blue.

House Champs!

As part of our positive behaviour initiatives, last

Thursday saw the announcement of our fortnightly

House Champs – well done to Latham students who

managed to achieve a total of 221 points for respectful,

responsible and safe behaviour and positive classroom

effort.

Thumbs Up! A big thumbs up to all of our wonderful parents, staff

and students for working together to get through the

COVID 19 working remoting and learning from home

period.

Reminders

No Hat Play in the Shade

School hats must be worn during break, PE and sport

times. Please ensure hats (& other items are clearly

labelled with your child’s name.
