Lost Property

At the end of every term a large amount of lost property from school is sent to charity.

Getting children to reclaim their personal belongings such as clothing, water bottles, and lunch boxes is an ongoing problem and losing items can be upsetting for both caregivers and children.

Please help reduce this problem in the following ways:

  1. Labelling Items: Please ensure that all your child's belongings are clearly labelled with their name. This greatly increases the likelihood of lost items being returned to their rightful owner.  There are permanent markers available at the school office if you would like to take one home and label your children's clothes.

  2. Checking Lost and Found: Encourage your child to check our lost and found area regularly. We regularly collect lost items in boxes in the learning spaces and in the lost property trolley.

  3. Valuables: Remind your child not to bring unnecessary valuables to school. We discourage items like toys and collectable cards. 

Your cooperation and support are greatly appreciated.
