Parent and Carer Information Night- Thank you:

Thank you to all parents, carers and members of the community who attended our Welcome Night and BBQ. It was pleasing to see many children engaging visitors in discussions about learning in their classrooms.

Principal Arrangements:

Dear Parents and Carers:Due to a request by the Director-General, Mr Murray Bruce will be acting principal at Garran Primary School for Term 1. I am pleased to inform you that Mr Greg Terrell, Deputy Principal of Richardson PS will be acting principal at Gordon Primary School for this period of time.

Working With Vulnerable People Checks:

Do you volunteer in the school? Do you have any contact with children on the school grounds, other than dropping off and picking up your own children? If so, it is now a requirement in the ACT that you have a Working With Vulnerable People (WWVP) check. It is free for the public and can be obtained by visiting any ACT Government Shopfront. There is one located in Tuggeranong Square. Click here to access the paperwork (save time by printing it out and completing it before going!).
