EASTER TUESDAY

Tuesday 2nd April is Easter Tuesday. All schools will be closed as this is a school holiday (not a public holiday).

PARENT TEACHER INTERVIEWS

As per usual, we will have two dates for parent-teacher interviews. This acknowledges that some parents can come during the day and some prefer an after work timeframe. We like children to be involved but it is up to you if you’d like them to be part of the interview

1. The first parent teacher interview day/evening is Tuesday 26th March, after school, starting at 3:20pm.  

2. The second parent teacher interview day is part of a Teacher Only Day on Thursday 28th March starting at 9:30am.

More information on how to book the interviews will be sent out soon.

* Kidshub will be open on this day. Please book directly with Kids Community Hub

Please note: If there aren’t at least 15 children enrolled, Kidshub will not be able to offer this service.
