CHANGE OF DETAILS
We rely on families to keep us updated with change of address, phone numbers and any other relevant information that is essential to your childs enrolment at West Lakes Shore School. Please advise us if you have recently moved or have new phone numbers. Remember if you have changed address we require the following:
If you own your home, you need to show both of these:
- contract of sale for the property or a recent council rates notice
- recent gas or electricity bill for the property.
If you rent a home, you need to show both of these:
- rental agreement and a bond receipt lodged with Consumer and Business Services showing the current place of residence. The rental agreement should cover at least the first 12 months at the school.
- recent gas or electricity bill for that property.
You must give your child’s primary permanent home address, not a commercial, postal or mailing one.
SunSmart Policy
Please remember to pack a hat and water bottle to ensure your child stays sun safe. As a SunSafe school our policy around hats is 'No Hat, Stay in the Shade'. The designated space is the outdoor covered Courtyard area, outside the library.
OSHC
Our OSHC is open before and after school. Due to a large volume of interest there are waiting lists on some days. Please inform OSHC as soon as possible if you no longer require care. This will support families new to the school who are keen to secure spots. For all early arrivals (before 8.30am) please book your child into our OSHC which has a range of exciting activities for your child to do.
Medical Plans
All students that have medical conditions are to bring medication, new plans and/or medication agreements dated 2021 to the front office on the first day of school. If your child self medicates e.g. Asthma and carries their own medication, please ensure you inform their class teacher as additional paperwork needs to be filled out.
School Uniform
Please ensure your child is dressed in accordance to school uniform policy found on the school website. This includes no nail polish, hair colouring or thongs. We value parental support in ensuring adherence and will contact families should students require any reminders.
