Amendment to the digital form for student image consent

Dear Parents/Carers

The safety and well-being of students is always our first priority. This includes protecting their privacy and respecting the wishes of parents and carers regarding the use of student photos, images, and works at all times.

At the start of each school year, you are asked to complete a form to provide your consent for images of your child to appear in various places (e.g., in school newsletters, social media, and promotional material).

In 2023, this form became digital, and you were asked to consent to an event in Compass. 

In the same way that you provided consent for your child in 2023, you will still be able to simply reply in the Compass app; however, in 2024, this consent will be provided in a new app feature called Compass Insight. Compass’ Insights module is a tool for gathering information from staff, students and parents that can be used for a variety of purposes.

   

    

What do you need to do?

During the Christmas vacation period, you will receive a new image consent Insight in the Compass app. Please click on the link provided and read the details of the Insight carefully, discuss it with your child, and once you have made your decision, answer the question to either provide or decline consent.

To ensure that no child misses out on having their photo taken as part of school life, we will occasionally send reminders to parents and carers who have yet to complete the Insight.

If you have any questions about this change or the image consent form in general, please contact the school, and we will be happy to discuss this further with you.

Yearbook 2023

Next week, the 2023 will be issued to those students who have made a purchase.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank the Yearbook Committee for taking photos, typing, cutting, pasting, sorting, writing, interviewing, proofreading and the list goes on… to compile a yearbook for our children to enjoy for many years to come. 

A very special thank you to Ainsley Eckermann and Pia Petre. These two wonderful ladies have led the Yearbook Committee for many years now and have dedicated a tremendous amount of time and effort. Thank you!

  
 

Thank You

A heartfelt thank you to all our volunteers who have organised events or turned up to lend a helping hand over the past year. Your time and energy has made a difference to our children’s school.

A BIG thank you to Kathy, the school leadership team, office staff and all the wonderful teachers who have taught and supported our children throughout 2023. Your dedication is greatly appreciated by the whole school community.
