Dear Families,

 

We would like to clarify our upcoming student free days and planned school closure dates for 2026. Our aim is to ensure all families are fully informed and able to make the necessary arrangements well in advance. It has recently come to our attention that some families may not be aware of the upcoming student free day.

 

The Governing Council approved the 2026 dates at the end of last year, as confirmation was required due to the availability of the presenter for our first student free day. We apologise if last year’s initial notification about this date, sent at the end of the year via Seesaw, was missed, and for not providing a timely follow-up reminder.
