All children need to wear runners, boots or sandals. Thongs and fashion sandals are dangerous and not suited for the Preschool program (unless specified). COMMUNICATION Larrakeyah Preschool has an open door policy where parents are welcome into the preschool at any time to observe your child’s learning or to assist in daily activities. There is also a Communication Book (a diary) near the entry where all parents are encouraged to write short notes to the staff if there are changes in who is collecting your child, if you would like to make an appointment to see the staff, or even if you’d like the staff to call you at a time when we can talk privately. We check this daily. We put up a variety of information on the notice board out the front of Preschool so please keep a lookout for the different notices. ILLNESS/HEALTH Please inform us about your child’s absence by phone or email. This is important so we know if there is a sickness spreading within the preschool. You can email us to or ring us directly. If you ring and we aren’t answering, it generally means we are outside and cannot hear the phone so you can ring again later or go through the school on 89813211. If your child is unwell, please keep them home because they may spread the illness but most importantly, they will just want to stay at home and rest. For example, if they need Panadol before coming to preschool, that means they are not well enough. Please check our exclusion chart for certain illnesses on our notice board. Please see attached the NT Government’s Time Out poster outlining the exclusion times for different illnesses and infections. Thankyou. If you have any further queries, please do not hesitate to come and ask us. Term Dates for 2017
