·         Communication between teachers / parents:  Parents are welcome to contact their child's teacher via email or phone call.  However a teacher's day includes many commitments, so a reply may not be instant.  However we will respond accordingly to the priority of the nature by return phone call or email within a 24 hour period.   
 
·         New Library Rules:   (From Emma Hamilton in the Library)
To help the library function effectively, some new borrowing rules have been put into place.  Issues with overdues have now been sorted, but please encourage your child to look at home for any library books that have been forgotten about, even if they are not listed on overdue notices.
 
1.  Borrowing Limits
·         Students in grades F-3 may borrow three books at a time.
·         Students in grades 4-7 may borrow four books at a time. If students have currently exceeded this limit, they will not be able to borrow more books until they return their current loans.
 
2. Borrowing Periods
·         The borrowing period for all loans is two weeks. If books are not returned or renewed within the fortnight they will be considered overdue.
 
3. Renewals
·         Loans may be renewed for an additional two weeks, unless the book has been reserved by another student. This means that the maximum borrowing time for students is four weeks.
 
4. Overdue notices
·         Overdue notices will be sent out weekly on a Friday.
·         Students will still be allowed to borrow books if they have overdue loans, provided they do not exceed their borrowing limit. Please encourage your child to return books by their due date so that other children have the opportunity to borrow them.
 
5. Extended Overdues
·         If books remain overdue for more than 2 weeks, the student's borrowing privileges will be suspended until the overdue books are returned.
 
 
·         Don’t forget that you are welcome/encouraged to come into class and listen to children read for the first 20 minutes of each day
