Parent and Citizens Association
The P&C Association is an important link between the school and community.
All parents – preschool to year 6 – are members of our P&C and are welcome to attend and/or stand for office and are encouraged to participate in the many and varied activities arranged by and for this group.
One of the aims of the P&C is to provide funds for special programs and resources that enhance the Curtin curriculum. Another aim is to provide a forum for educational discussion, input and understanding. As well, social activities are arranged.
Meetings are held twice a term, in Week 3 and Week 8, in the school staffroom.

Permission Notes
Permission notes are emailed to families. Hard copies are available at the front office by request.
Students cannot attend an excursion without a signed permission note. All permission notes for activities outside the school must be returned to the school signed by a parent/carer.
A link with permission notes is included with newsletters each fortnight. Notes are also posted on our website.
Playground Supervision and Play times
All staff members on playground duty wear a fluoro yellow vest for easy identification by all children. Children are encouraged to seek help from the teacher on duty at any time.
Before School:
The playgrounds are supervised before school from 8.30am. Students are allowed to play on the equipment once there is a teacher on duty.
For safety reasons students do not have access via the rear car park and car park door.
Students are asked not to enter or leave the school via the front office unless during school hours when a parent is waiting or when dropping off notes.
Children come around the outside of the school, enter via the nearest door to their classroom and leave their bags in their bag boxes.
After School:
Playgrounds are not supervised after 3pm.
Students leave the school building via the closest door to their classroom. They are asked not to leave via the front doors.
Senior students who are being collected at the afternoon pick up area are asked to make their way quickly to the front driveway. Junior students will be escorted to the pick up area by a member of staff.
From 3:15pm any students remaining will be brought to the front office area and parents will be called.
Wet Weather:
During wet weather, students are supervised in their classrooms by teaching staff. Students are permitted to enter the school by the front doors on rainy days.
