WELCOME PROGRAM To support our new families to make the transition into the school community we set up a Welcome Family Program. A Welcome Family is allocated to you to welcome you into the school community by introducing you to your Class Representative (who is also a representative of our Parents and Friends Association (PFA)), being a contact when you have questions about day to day concerns or queries, inviting you to informal coffee morning, keeping you informed of upcoming events within the school and ensuring you are receiving all communications.
