• Special notes are required for Slam, Flippa Ball, Surf Awareness, and Millennium this term. These are available outside the West Wing during the last week of Term 2 and the first week of Term 3. These are due to the teacher on the relevant sport on the first day of sport for Term 3.

• If a student is not dressed in the correct uniform on a Thursday, a note must be presented to and signed by Mr Hughes before school or during Break 1. Students not wearing the correct uniform and without a note will be sent to Sports Detention instead of going to Sport for the afternoon.
