Birthday's This Week

Attendance

Unfortunately, we have had a big drop in the number of students here at school 90% or more this week. Invtitations to our attendance celebration will go home to families on Tuesday, for Friday afternoon. Remember, you can check your child's attendance on COMPASS. We will be sending every child's attendance data for the term home next week.

Child Safe Standards

At Gowrie Street Primary School, keeping our students safe is our highest priority. As part of our commitment to Child Safety Standards, we are reviewing our policies and would like to hear from our families. You can review policies HERE.

Updated policies will be uploaded to our school website in the last week of September. If you would like to provide feedback or suggestions, please email Eron Chapman at eron.chapman@education.vic.gov.au before then.

Your input helps us ensure our policies reflect the needs and voices of our community.
