Good afternoon Parents, Carers and Friends of Greenwich Public School.
Welcome to Week 6 of Term 3.
School Administrative and Support Staff (SASS) Recognition Week
This week we celebrate SASS Recognition Week. Our SASS team play a vital role in ensuring the positive
and successful day-to-day running of our school, supporting our staff, students and parents in the office,

Thank you to our wonderful office staff, library assistants, fabulous General Assistants and our caring
Student Learning Support Officers for your tireless contribution to our school community. We couldn’t do

Student safety before and after school
Your child’s safety is important to us. As you may be aware Kingslangley Rd becomes quite busy in the
afternoons so we are asking for your continued cooperation at pick-up times, both at car line and the park

the gate and make contact with the teacher on duty to let them know you are there to collect your child. If
you are collecting your child from the car line, we ask that you please adhere to the road safety rules and
pull in close to the curb to collect your child.
In the mornings, a reminder that teacher supervision does not begin until 8:45am. If your child arrives a
few minutes early, please remind them to sit in the designated space until a teacher comes on duty.
We thank you for your ongoing cooperation with this.

Kindergarten News
KSH has had the most amazing start to our term. Some of our exciting activities we have done so far
include inviting parents in to the classroom during Education Week to see our hard work, dressing up as
fairy tale characters for Book Week and competing in our first ever athletics carnival! We even hosted the
Kindergarten assembly last week.
KSH continues to have fun learning about fairy tales and has begun writing some descriptions. We can't
wait to see what the rest of our term brings!
PSSA Uniforms
This is reminder that students who participated in PSSA AFL, Netball and Soccer are now required to
return their Greenwich tops to their PSSA teacher.
We thank you for your cooperation in this matter.

Canteen News
Over the next 5 weeks we will be migrating from Flexischools to Cashless, our new ordering system.
Cashless is a more stable and secure ordering system and is free of the glitches and failures associated
with Flexischools. No more ordering surcharges, no more top up fees, just 1 simple fee per term. You can
even use it for free if you order infrequently. Food photos and detailed nutrition information is also being
added to the parent ordering screen for more informed selections. The menu item prices are also 5%
cheaper than Flexischools.
