Parent Information

Should my child wear a hat at school?

Yes, all students must wear a sun-smart hat during recess, lunch and for sport and physical education throughout the year. NO sun-smart hat = NO play outside. Everyone should remember to wear a sun-smart hat during all outdoor activity at home or school.

Should my child wear the school uniform?

Yes, all students are expected to wear the correct school uniform. Halidon

Primary School community actively encourages the wearing of school uniforms and strongly recommends that all items are clearly labelled and identifiable.

A uniform dress code reinforces in students a sense pride in their own appearance, instils recognition of themselves as an integral part of the school community, and assists in developing pride in representing their school.

Details of the Uniform Policy may be found on the website.

Where is my newsletter?

Newsletters are printed once a fortnight. A copy of the latest edition is available via the school website, at the front office and it is emailed to families every fortnight. Please contact the school if you are interested in sponsoring our newsletter.

What should I do if my child is away from school?

All absences from school must be explained. A written note, email or a quick call to the school is usually enough.

How can I pay my school contributions?

The school receives an annual grant for standard provision of learning and teaching programs. A voluntary contribution allows us to provide your child with an enhanced learning program above the standard provision. All students benefit from the voluntary school contribution. We need your support by paying the amount endorsed by the School Council. The contribution is $60 per child.  The school can accept Bank Transfer, cheque or cash. Please go to the reception counter in the administration building.
