Parking
Parking around the School can be problematic, especially around pick up time. To ease congestion and ensure the safety of our students, the Prep School use a carline that enable parents to collect their children from the underground carpark from 2.45pm each day. We therefore ask Redlands House families to refrain from parking in the 5 minutes parking zone outside the Preschool from 2.30pm onwards. Families are still able to park for 5 minutes out the front of Redlands House until 2.30pm.
Birthdays
The preschool staff love to celebrate the children’s birthdays each year. The children love to celebrate their birthday too – it’s a great conversation topic all year round! We have many children in the Preschool with food allergies, so we are not permitting cakes or any type of food in the preschool for birthday celebrations. Please be assured we will celebtrate their special day in a variety of ways.
Uniform Shop
The Uniform Shop is open on Monday, Wednesday, Friday 8am – 4pm and Thursdays 8am – 6pm.
We would encourage parents to order online through Flexischools, where possible. Orders placed before 5pm will be available after 1pm the following day, Please note that orders placed on Monday will be available on Wednesdays as the shop is closed on Tuesdays.
Orders are now available to be delivered to Prep/Junior School classrooms. Any orders that have not been collected by Friday morning will be sent down to students in their classroom.
If you need an urgent item or need assistance with sizing, we are happy for you to come to the shop and purchase at the door.
A final reminder that students will need to be wearing the new sports polo from Week 4. These are available to purchase at the shop.
If you would like to speak to any of our Uniform Shop team, please call us on 9968 9850.
