It was wonderful this morning to welcome our excited 2023 Kindergarten students and families into the school for their second orientation day. The boys and girls were so settled and had a fantastic time getting to know their way around a classroom and interacting with new teachers and friends.

We are looking forward to having our third and final orientation morning next Wednesday.

ONLINE PARENT PORTAL - SCHOOL BYTES

For a number of years now our school fees and invoices have been sent out via email using the School Bytes finance system. More recently we have begun to create a paperless system for school permission notes and intend to maximise the systems ability as a centralised system for parent and student information. 

School Bytes have now developed a Parent Portal that allows parents/carers to view payment history, outstanding fees, online permission notes and in future academic reports and more. This portal is now available for you to register and begin viewing your child / children's history and any outstanding fees.

Reminders:

• Current 2022 fees can be paid using the link sent in a past statement.
• When setting up your Parent Portal, please use the same email address linked to your school account.
• If your details have changed and you can not see anything in the portal, please contact the office.

NOT RETURNING OR RETURNING LATE IN 2023?

The first day of school for most students next year will be Tuesday 31st January, 2023. Year 5 OC students will begin on Wednesday 1st February, 2023 and new Kindergarten students will book their Best Start interview date before their first official day on Monday 6th February 2023.

It is vital that we know if your child/children will NOT be returning to Artarmon or will be returning late next year. Some families take extended holidays in January/ February and we need to know your return date so that your enrolment can be counted. This information will enable the school to plan for staffing and classing needs.

This note does not apply to Year 6 students.
