Air Quality Information - Helen Thew, Cross Campus Principal

Air Quality levels are posted on our Students’, Parents’ and Staff Firefly Dashboards.

Links to our policies and procedures can be found here.

Air Quality levels are automatically read three times a day: Early morning, 11.00am and 1.30pm.

To further understand what happens when air quality levels reach higher than normal levels, please access the presentation given to parents in November here.

Students may come to school wearing masks but they are not obligated to do so.

With our new pre-cooled, fresh air systems in place, students can then remove their masks when they come into class.

Residential preparation

Many of our students are getting very excited about the upcoming residential visits but there are some who are feeling anxiety too.  Please do let your child know that it is very normal to be anxious about being away from home for three nights.  Talk together about strategies that they can use for any particular worries.  E.g. if they are worried about being afraid of the dark, look into packing a small night light that they can bring to have by their bed.  

If they still have accidents with regards to wetting the bed, we are happy to work with you and your child to alleviate any anxiety they may have about this.  

If you child seems overly worried, please do let their class teacher know.  We would like to work together to ensure that your child feels as supported as possible going into this experience.  

SUGGESTED PACKING LIST

Please encourage your child to assist in the packing of their own bags so they can identify their own belongings. We recommend a soft holdall/duffel bag or small wheelie bag. Storage space on the bus and in the rooms can be tight. All belongings must be clearly labelled.
