Principal’s Report
Dear Parents and Carers,
Week 7
I hope all of our Normanhurst families enjoyed the long weekend. It is great to have the students settled back into
school routines now that we have been back on site full-time for a few weeks. Please find below a few reminders
to promote the health of all members of our school community:
Please send your child/ren to school with a drink bottle each day, as students should only access bubblers
as a means to refill drink bottles, not to drink directly from.
Please minimise visits to the school site and observe social distancing at all times whilst on site.
If you have an enquiry and it can be made via telephone or email, please use this means to communicate
rather than visiting our office.
Please do not send your child/ren to school if they are unwell and do not enter the school site if you are
unwell.
Bathroom Renovation
The renovation of our K-2 toilets has commenced! It is very exciting to have this project underway. We look
forward to having these brand new facilities ready to use early next term.
Opportunity Class 2021
Last week all Year 4 students received an information letter about the Opportunity Class application process.
Please remember that all applications must be completed by Friday 26 June. The High Performing Students Unit
will not accept late applications. The online application can be accessed at https://education.nsw.gov.au/public-
schools/selective-high-schools-and-opportunity-classes/year-5.
Kindergarten 2021
Our 2021 Kindergarten Information Session will be held on Tuesday 18 August. Please add this date to your diary
if you have a child commencing school next year and please pass this information on if you are aware of a
neighbour or friend who does. Prior to the session next term, please contact our Administration Office on 9489
1152 or via email at [email protected], and they will arrange to post an information package
to you.
Drop-Off and Pick-Up Zone
Please be aware of the NSW road rules that apply to our pick-up / drop-off zone on Nomanhurst Road. The
cooperation of all families using this zone is appreciated to promote the safety of all of our students. Please be
aware of the following:
NOTES SENT HOME
Tuesday 9 June 2020 Dance Group Update
Tuesday 9 June 2020 ‘Just Like You’ Workshop
Email: [email protected] Website: www.normanhurs-p.schools.nsw.edu.au
Phone: 9489 1152 Fax: 9489 3257
Be Responsible. Be Respectful. Strive for Success.
Children should enter and exit vehicles on the KERB SIDE, not the road side
Vehicles should enter at the back of the drop-off / pick-up zone and move forward once other cars leave
No vehicles should be double parking. This is illegal. If the zone is full when you arrive, you will need to
drive around the block as you cannot block the traffic on Normanhurst Rd waiting for a spot.
Please also note that the drop-off / pick-up zone is not a parking area. Drivers must remain within three metres
of their vehicles at all times and cannot have their vehicle in the zone for more than two minutes. Council parking
rangers patrol the streets surrounding our school regularly and a number of parents have been fined for not
complying with these laws.
Striver badges
Congratulations to the following students who received a Striver badge last week:
Blue badge – Jonty B, Cameron N
Red badge – Daniel J, Nathan L, Cerys S
Positive Behaviour for Learning
During this fortnight all classes are revising expectations for our bathrooms (timely with our renovations
happening!) and how our three values relate to this setting. The Week 6 recipients of our PBL draw were Joel F,
Hazel N and Mahiya S.
Merit Certificates
Congratulations to the following students who received a merit certificate last week:
For Being Responsible Avni G 3B Olivia A 4R Callum A 5/6M Nathan L 3J Anshika S 4/5V Benjamin W 6L Patrick O 3/4D Marissa M 5H

Uniform Shop News
In order to adhere to social distancing measures in the shop, we will continue to operate by appointment only
until further notice. Appointments are available for those wishing to try uniforms for size, or to access the second-
hand clothing pool.
Appointments can be booked using the following link: https://signup.com/go/cmDYUyW
If you already know the size and items you require, please send us an email with your completed order form and
proof of payment. The order form can be found here: http://www.npspandc.com/uniform-shop/. Orders will be
packed on Friday and distributed to your child’s classroom for them to bring home.
Pre-loved Donations
We are still accepting donations to our second-hand clothing pool. We are in particular need of unisex long-sleeve
shirts and girls winter tunics/trousers, especially in the 10+ size range, but all donations are gratefully received.
Please leave your items at the school office. We ask that all donations are in good condition, freshly washed and
please remove/scrub through any names. We are unable to accept items that are not school uniform. Your
donation not only helps the school community, it also helps to keep clothing out of landfill and reduces the
consumption of new items. Thank you.
Returns Policy
If you are unsure of size or the item required, we ask that wherever possible you make an appointment to try
before you buy. We appreciate that sometimes the wrong size will be purchased and we are happy to exchange
for another size.
On the rare occasion that an item just isn’t suitable for your child, we can issue a store credit that you can use
against future purchases. Unfortunately we are unable to provide refunds.
In order for a return or exchange to be accepted, the items must be returned within 28 days and be unworn,
unwashed and in the original wrapping with all tags still attached. We ask that you let the shop know (by
email) that you intend to exchange/return the item and provide date of purchase.
Unfortunately we cannot accept any return or exchange of hats, or socks and stockings (unless unopened) due
to hygiene reasons.
Faulty/defective items can be returned anytime within the warranty period (usually 12months) and will be returned
to the manufacturer for repair.
We thank you for your understanding.
