Dear Families,

We are now over the hallway mark of term 1, I hope all our new students have settled into Alkimos.

Brekkie Club

Please remember Brekkie Club (Thursday) club starts 07:40am in the art room, some students are arriving after 8am and it’s a rush for them to eat and tidy up before 08:20. All are welcome, I look forward to seeing your children.

Uniform

We have noticed an increase in female students wearing ‘bike shorts’ and leggings.  Please note that as per the School Uniform Policy and Dress Code, these are only to be worn under dresses and skirts and not just with a T-shirt. – Thank you for your cooperation with this.

Girls

• Navy yoke skirt with undershorts or skort with school polo shirt.
• School A-line dress.
• Navy track pants or bootleg pants with school polo shirt.
• In colder months a navy jacket or school zip jacket with a school logo may be worn over the above.
• School hat.
• Leggings and tights may be worn in colder months. These must be navy blue (not patterned or coloured) and be worn under dresses, skirts or skorts.
• If wearing a skirt or dress, girls are encouraged to wear navy or black sports knickers.

CONSEQUENCES

Where a student breaches the School Uniform and Dress Code, a letter will be sent home with the student. Repeated breaches may result in loss of Good Standing.

I have attached the full policy 

Statement of account

Statements of student accounts will be issued next week.  It is Department policy that we send this home.

Voluntary Contributions 2025

 Thank you to those families who have already paid their voluntary contribution, either directly to the school or via the Campion booklist This really does go along way and ensure we can provide all incursions at no cost.  This payment equates to .75c per day for your child.

I would like to advise that the $30 contribution is Voluntary and can always be paid in a number of ways.

In cash, in person or over the phone via EFT

By direct transfer to our bank account BSB 066 058 A/C 1029 3855 Stating your child’s name and Voluntary Contribution as the reference.   Payment plans are always offered, just call in to see me in the office.

 Here is a breakdown of voluntary contributions received to date for 2025

 Overall 26.20%

Competition Time !!!!

We will be having a draw at the end of term to win one of 6 gift vouchers valued at $25.  All those who have either paid their Contributions in full or started a plan before 10 April 25 will automatically go into the draw.  Good Luck

Kind regards
