Dear Parents and Carers

Parking

Parking around the school continues to be a problem. While I understand this can cause stress please be

aware it is not appropriate to be disrespectful to other parents.

Carols Night

Our Carols Night is nearly upon us. Thanks to the hard work of a group of parents led by Mrs Thomas we

have a large number of wonderfully presented hampers as raffle prizes. Please return your tickets to the

office for an opportunity to take home one of these lovely gift baskets.

Returning Students 2019

A reminder that if you know that you will not be returning to Truscott Street next year, excluding year 6

students, could you please inform the school office.
