I give my consent for my child/ren to be dismissed early under the following conditions:

• up to 1 hour before the normal end of the school day on the last school day before the Easter long weekend;
• up to 1 hour before the normal end of the school day no more than 4 times a year for the purpose of the end of school terms;
• up to 1 hour before the normal end of the school day for the purpose of an annual school sports day;
• up to 1 hour before the normal end of the school day for the purpose of an annual district-wide sport carnival; and
• up to 1 hour before the normal end of the school day in the event of an extreme heatwave declared by the State Emergency Services, or where the health and safety of the children at the school are considered at risk due to the absence, localised failure or poor performance of air conditioning on days of extreme heat (36 degrees or above).

Parents will be notified in advance (minimum 1 month) of the reason, time and date of the above early dismissals through the normal communication channels used between the school and parents, including, but not limited to, school newsletters and the schools website.

For early dismissals relating to ‘extreme heat’ scenarios parents will be notified as soon as possible before students are dismissed.

 Agreement

• I agree and acknowledge that my consent (if provided) will remain active/in place for the entire time my child is enrolled and attending at the school unless I withdraw it by notifying the principal (or delegate) either in writing or by telephone.
