2020 OPENING DATES

2020 OPENING DATES

Every year ANPS opens the office and uniform shop earlier so you are able to come in and make final EES payments and purchase new uniforms.

The office and uniform shop will be open on Tuesday 28th January from 11am - 1pm.

Alternatively if you would like to purchase new uniforms before the end of Term, feel free to come to the office and fill out an order form and we will contact you when it is ready to be

picked up.

ALL STUDENTS will start school on THURSDAY 30th JANUARY.

LIBRARY

 LIBRARY:

It's that time of year again where you need to return all books borrowed from the library in preparation for the New Year. If you are having trouble finding overdue books a good place to look is under your bed or maybe on a bookcase with other books.

ALL LIBRARY BOOKS ARE NOW DUE BACK AT SCHOOL!

There is no more borrowing for the rest of the year!

MONEY COLLECTION

MONEY COLLECTION:

The final day for Student Banking with CBA will take place on TUESDAY 26th NOVEMBER. This will ensure that any reward items will be delivered to school before the end of the school year. If you are unsure of your current token count please stop by the office to find out.

The office will NOT be receipting any money received after Wednesday 18^th December. If you send payment to school after this date, it will be kept securely and a receipt will be issued at the start of the 2020 school year.

It would be greatly appreciated if all money payable to the school could be handed into the office over the next few weeks.

2020 Essential Education Supplies

2020 Essential Education Supplies (EES):

The School Council has determined the cost of the 2020 Essential Education Supplies to be $200 per child. This covers essential education items and materials for learning and teaching for next year. The school is able to buy these supplies in bulk to receive discount prices. The supplies will be bought in individual packs and distributed as required by each grade teacher. It is recommended that parents purchase through the school as items need to meet the school’s specifications and will be cheaper. Payment options are listed below.

A discount of $10 will be given for FULL payment received on or before Tuesday 28^th January 2020.

Please contact the office if you have any questions or to make an appointment to speak with the Principal or Assistant Principal should you need to make alternate payment arrangements.

The Camps, Sports and Excursion Fund (CSEF) can be claimed by families with a Health Care or Pension Card valid as of 29^th January 2020 providing $125 per child. Unfortunately, the CSEF cannot be used to cover payment for EES 2020 but will be of great assistance when making payments for excursion/incursions and budgeting for 2020. State Schools’ Relief uniform assistance is also available to families in serious financial difficulties. Follow this link for further information
