Dear Families, 

As you may already know, Tasmanian Unions, including the Australian Education Union (AEU) and other school-based unions, have directed members to participate in stop work action next week.

For the Southern region, the stop work action is planned for Thursday, 30 October 2025.

As a result it has been determined that our school will be temporarily closed for educational instruction until after 11am on this day. With a number of staff participating in the stop work action, our school will be unable to provide adequate duty of care for students and therefore we ask that students arrive after 11:00am for a 11.30am start. Please be assured that normal school arrangements will resume as the school reopens.  

Please also note that bus operators will not be adjusting their timetables in response to the later school starting time. 

We recognise these closures due to industrial action will impact families; it is regrettable that school closure action is necessary, however, we must be able to ensure adequate safety and supervision of students.  If you are concerned you will be unable to make alternative arrangements for your child, please contact our office as soon as possible. 

Regards,

Jo Waldon
Principal

Uniform

We'd like to inform you about some upcoming changes regarding our school uniform sales.

Until now, uniform purchases have been made directly through the school.  

However, following a recent tender process, Uniform City has been selected as our new official uniform supplier.

1. Last day to buy uniforms directly from school:  Friday 17 October 2025
2. After this date, there will be a short interim period when uniform purchases will not be available for purchase.
3. From Monday 3 November 2025 uniform will be available for purchase through Uniform City 
4. We will still be selling 2nd hand uniform from the school.
