Welcome back everyone to Term 3 and our school’s ongoing dedicated focus to ensure every learner is thriving. Thank you to all families for your daily support of students wearing their school uniform – the children all look ‘smart, respectful and ready for learning and at their best’ to start this term. 

I am absolutely delighted to announce that I have been appointed to Burnie Primary School to continue in the Principal role through to the end of the year. It is fantastic to be able to provide some stability to our community. I look forward to continuing our important work together. This term is set to be a productive one so please take a moment to review the updated ‘Important Dates To Remember’ below and add these to your calendar. We look forward to connecting with our community through Book Week, Science Week, Bullying No Way Day and Lift opportunities (Bug Hotels and open classrooms).  

 At Burnie Primary School we strive to achieve the Department for Education Children and Young People's COMMITMENT: where every child and young person is: known, heard and included; safe in all environments; well and thriving and learning more every day.

School Times 
Burnie Primary school hours are from 8.30 am through to 2.45 pm.  It is important that parents do not bring children to school before school hours because there is no supervision of students at that time. Similarly, it is important parents either collect their children at the end of the school day or arrange for them to catch the bus home/make other collection arrangements so that students are not left unsupervised at the end of the school day. Unsupervised students may engage in dangerous play or put themselves in dangerous locations such as car parks being used by buses and cars during school drop off/pick up. Parents are responsible for their child outside school hours unless they have accessed school-based childcare during these times.
