Organisation and Safety Procedures - after 3pm
To ensure the safety of our children after 3pm, including if they attend extra-curricular activities outside of school hours, or After School Care.

Parents need to:
  • inform their child's class teacher of the classes that their child is attending;
  • let the teacher of the activity know in advance if their child is not going to be attending.  Please ensure that you give the office plenty of time to pass the message on to the appropriate person, if you can't let the teacher know directly;
  • pick up their child from the office, if they are running late.
Office Staff need to:
  • ensure that notices about extra-curricular activities are in the weekly school newsletter, and information is available on the school website;
  • ensure that messages between parents and teachers are passed on in time; and
  • ring the parents of children who have been brought to the office to wait after school.
Organisers need to:
  • ensure that all staff and parents have easy access to information about extra-curricular programmes, with the school newsletter and website being the main sources of information;
  • ensure that Nicole has an up-to-date list of children who are attending each activity;
  • ensure that children are reminded about attending these activities, and are taken to these activities for the first session (e.g. teacher of the activity comes to pick them up from class, a buddy system is set-up etc. This is particularly important for our junior children and children new to our school); and
  • record attendance at the beginning of each session, and follow-up the non-attendance of any child before starting the class.
Class Teachers need to:
  • ensure that all New Entrant / Year 1 children do not leave the class until their parent/older sibling has arrived to pick them up;
  • follow up with any parents/caregivers if they are unsure who is supposed to pick up their child or where they are supposed to be after school; and
  • take any children who have not been picked up to the office to wait.
