Information A-Z


School Chaplain

Our School Chaplain is Bob Jaegar. For many years BAS has offered Bible in School and Bob has been presenting these sessions for us for more than 20 years. Bible in School is a fun programme that encourages children to make positive life choices, grow in character and relate well to others. Children reinforce values that connect to the curriculum. They include bible stories that help reinforce messages like; treat others how you want to be treated, show respect, do your best, be a good friend, help others and ask for help, make good choices and help others make good choices.
We believe these sessions are very worthwhile and a weekly session before school on a Wednesday (8:30-9: 00am) is offered in our school library. These weekly sessions are open to all age groups across the school - NE - Year 6.
If you are keen for your child/ren to attend these sessions, please contact the school office who will give you a consent form. 

School Stationery

All information on stationery requirements can be found here.

School Trips

As a school we appreciate the value of educational trips and visits, and all classes are involved in these to some degree.  While we hope that all children can participate, parents have a right to withhold permission for involvement in any activity which takes place outside the school property.

Some specialist services are available through the school:


Hearing and Vision Tests  
These are conducted by Healthlink South at frequent intervals throughout the year.  New Entrants are seen automatically and children who fail tests are re-tested and the appropriate action taken.
