We have noticed that many parents are starting to push afternoon pick up back much later.  We understand that some people choose to give the traffic a little bit of time, but many parents have been pushing pick up time til 3:30 or later, with line ups starting to occur at this time and many students still remaining after 3:30.  By 3:15, the lineup has generally decreased significantly.  We understand that sometimes things happen,  if you think you are going to be late, please ring through to the office, so we can pass this information to the students.  Care for students is always of paramount importance, with any student remaining at 3:30 taken to the office with a courtesy phone call home and a staff member always waiting to ensure the children are picked up safely.  Please be mindful however that our office does close at 3:30.  A reminder that OSHC is available to our community, with many people utilising this service.
