BOOK WEEK

It’s time to dress up to celebrate Book Week on Friday 22 August! We encourage all students and staff to dress as their favourite character, or to team up with friends for a group costume. This year’s theme is ‘Book An Adventure’, and our Library team has some wonderful activities planned - look out for more details soon!

Our Book Fair will be running during Book Week and will have a wide array of books for all ages. Students and parents can visit the Book Fair to purchase and order books, and there will also be a range of fun and useful gifts to purchase.

The Book Fair will be available to visit on Book Day (Friday 22 August), however we strongly recommend popping in Monday-Thursday prior, as the Book Fair will be very busy on Book Day.

Book Fair Opening Times: 8.00 am - 9.00 am and 3.00 pm - 3.45 pm Monday 18 August to Thursday 21 August


CAR LINE REMINDER - Making Drop-Off Safer

There are a number of safety protocols and procedures in place to keep our families and students safe in our morning Car Line. To help with achieving this, we ask that parents and carers dropping off students in the morning Car Line please follow the guidelines below: 

  • Enter the College from Gate 3 on Farm Road.

  • Form two lanes while waiting.

  • Round the corner and follow staff directions to proceed along the Car Line. Please do not stop or allow your student to exit the vehicle while on the corner. 

  • To allow more families to safely drop off their students, please keep moving along the Car Line, ensuring there are no gaps between you and the car in front. If you have stopped in the middle of the car line, staff may direct you to move forward to allow more vehicles to fit behind you.

  • To follow safety protocols and reduce the risk of accidents occurring, parents must not exit their vehicle. Should your student need help exiting your car, please utilise an ‘Assistance Appreciated’ sign and wait for assistance. More information about this sign can be found below.

  • Please be mindful of other cars driving through the Car Line as you exit. 

‘Assistance Appreciated’ Signs To help ensure the safety of our students, families, and staff during morning Car Line, the College has introduced a new ‘Assistance Appreciated’ sign.

This sign is for families whose children need help exiting their vehicle safely. By using the sign, we can prevent situations where a parent needs to exit the car. 

If your student needs assistance to exit your vehicle, please visit the Concierge Desk at the Tech Centre to collect a sign or request from Car Line Staff. 

Your safety, and the safety of all students, is a priority to the College. Thank you for helping us keep our Car Line safe and efficient for everyone.
