LOCKDOWN EXERCISE 11TH OF NOVEMBER
We have completed our Lockdown Exercise and all students, staff and persons on-site are safely accounted for. Everyone did extremely well and responded to instructions. A notice will be going out to parents/caregivers tonight to provide some more information about our emergency lockdown procedures.
I would like to personally thank you for your support while we conduct these practices.
Kind regards
Kerry Lewis
