Upcoming Swimming Carnival Sept 4th 2024 |
 |
We are holding our Swimming Carnival on the 4th of September 2024 at Clarence Aquatic Centre and for us to be able to run this event efficiently we will need some parent volunteers. The event runs between 9:30am and 2:30pm, so if you can give any amount of time between these times please email Mark Nichols.
All volunteers will need their WWVP card and have watched the Safeguarding video.

Dear Parents and Guardians,
Due to whooping cough being present in our school community, we are providing you with information about whooping cough in the link attached.
Whooping Cough (Pertussis) fact sheet | Tasmanian Department of Health
Whilst whooping cough usually starts with similar symptoms to other flu like illnesses – runny nose, fever, cough – the coughing can get worse, with severe, uncontrollable coughing being followed by vomiting or a gasping breath which results in a “whooping” sound.
If you notice whooping cough signs and symptoms, we ask you keep your child home and have them tested so you can follow the correct advice and access appropriate health care if you or your family require it. This does include keeping you child at home until symptoms have resolved.
Please consider ensuring your whooping cough vaccination is up to date.
Any queries, please contact our school health nurse Monday – Thursday via the school office (6223 6040).
Laura, School Health Nurse
