Tomerong Public School

Dear Parents and Carers,

Enrolments for 2022

If are intending to enrol your child in Kindergarten next year, we ask you to make contact with our office so we can begin the enrolment process. New families residing within our school’s zoning area are welcome to organise a time to introduce themselves and be shown around the school. We look forward to meeting you!

NAPLAN

Our Year 3 and 5 students will be participating in NAPLAN (National Assessment Program, Literacy and Numeracy). Both year groups will be completing the assessments online on the following dates:

Writing: Tuesday 11 May

Reading: Thursday 13 May

Conventions of Language: Monday 17 May

Numeracy: Tuesday 18 May.

Please do not hesitate to contact myself or your child’s teacher if you would like to discuss your child’s involvement in NAPLAN.

School Voluntary Contributions

School Voluntary Contributions will remain at $35 per child or $60 per family. These payments are used to purchase learning resources and enable us to offer the fantastic range of programs that exist within our school.

Voluntary Contributions can be paid in either a lump sum or smaller payments throughout the year. The preferred payment method is Parent Online Payment (POP) which can be accessed online through the school's website.

Mother’s Day Stall

Our amazing P&C have compiled a beautiful range of gifts for our students to purchase at the Mother’s Day stall tomorrow, Thursday 6 May.

Students can select a gift for $5.00 each. Please ensure students bring their money on the day.

We wish all our mums, nans, step mums and aunties a lovely day on Sunday. Thank you for everything you do!

Have a great week,

Rod White

School Photo Day – Change of Date - Uniform Orders

I wish to advise parents that our School Photo Day will be held in Week 8, Wednesday 9 June. 

It is hoped that this early notification will assist parents and carers in determining whether they need to place an order with our uniform provider, School Locker and have it delivered well in time for photo day.

If you need to raise an order with School Locker and have not already created an account, an instructional video link can be found in the Newsletter, which is emailed to parents and carers each week or you can access the link by clicking the Parents & Citizens label on the maroon ribbon on the school’s website at https://tomerong-p.schools.nsw.gov.au/.

Students will be required to wear their WINTER uniform for photo day.

Photo order envelopes will be sent home with students later in the term and more information regarding photo day will be published in our weekly newsletter.

Thank you

Marg Blair

Students in Kindergarten, Year 1 and under 8's are in full training to prepare for our Mini Cross Country Carnival.

The carnival will be held on Friday 14 May on the school oval, beginning at 2pm. Parents are welcome to attend and cheer on our budding athletes.

Looking forward to a fun afternoon.

Mother’s Day Stall

We are very excited to be holding our Mother’s Day stall tomorrow, which will be open between lunch and recess. All gifts are $5 each with a variety of gifts available. Thank you so much to all the people who kindly donated goods, homemade creative gifts and jars.

Uniforms

School photos are on Wednesday 9 June (Week 8), so if you require new winter uniforms for photo day, please place your order with School Locker as soon as possible to avoid disappointment. The School Locker can be accessed by clicking this link https://theschoollocker.com.au/schools/tomerong-public-school.  There is also a link below with instructions on how to order uniforms from The School Locker.

Culottes & Tunics For Sale

Culottes and Tunics have been unavailable in certain sizes from our uniform supplier School Locker. Consequently, the P&C have had these articles made through a local seamstress. At the moment there is a limited number of culottes in sizes 4, 8 and 10 and Tunics in sizes 6 and 8. These items are available for purchase through the school office and are only available until all are sold.

Both culottes and tunics are $35 each and can be purchased by contacting our office staff on 4443 4376 or email your purchase request to tomerong-p.school@det.nsw.edu.au. Please note that payment is by CASH only.

Thanks

Tomerong P&C
