Fire Preparedness Information

Our school will be closed on Code Red days. The school will be contacted in advance about this and communication will go home to families to let you know what is happening. On extreme fire de-rating days the school will be open. 

We are given up to date information at school about weather conditions and will communicate this to families via UEducateUs, email, phone tree or Facebook, depending on the time of day we are informed. On these days we do require that families respond or acknowledge the contact so that we can confirm you have received the message. We understand parent concern on these days, however it is important to try and keep the school phone lines open for emergency service information. Some information about this will also be placed on our School Facebook page and parents Facebook page. If you have any questions about this, please come and see us at school. We have included the fire rating symbol, which most families are already familiar with. All families should have their own home fire plans in place

Our school bus route will not be operating on Code Red days. This is a new consistent process across the State and an important one to ensure the safety of everyone involved.
