They sell food at interval and after sit-down
lunch. There is no opportunity to pre-order
lunch.
Slide 30
Lunch Time Procedures
All students, except Year 13’s, must return to their houses at
the start of lunch time.
Sit-down lunch goes for a duration of 15 minutes. During that
time you must sit-down in the commons or in the area in
front of the house.
If you are held back by a teacher at the end of Period 3 for
any reason then you must stay with that teacher until the
end of sit-down lunch.
You must not attend meetings or go to any sport’s fixtures
during this time. House sport starts after the bell for the
end of sit-down lunch and time will be given for students to
get to the gym and to change.
Slide 31
Lost Property
If you lose valuables (eg watch, glasses, calculator, wallet), go to the
Top Office at the entrance of the administration block.
If you lose any other items such as books or clothes, then look first in
the house lost property.
There is a school lost property that is located in the uniform shop.
However, to avoid losing items, make sure everything is clearly
labelled with your name and your house.
If you lose something then you should register the loss of the item in
the book in the House Leader’s office.
If you suspect that something has been stolen then report the
disappearance immediately. It becomes increasingly impossible to
get things back the longer you wait to report it missing.
Slide 32
Leave
Taking time out of school is not encouraged but
if you are going to be taking time out of
school, then you must see Mrs Wong, House
Leader and apply for leave. She will give you a
form to be filled in by your parents.
Return the form to the House Leader and she
will consider your application. On your return
you will be required to complete catch-up
sessions which happen after school in H5.
