Announcement from the Davis Family

It is with great sadness that we announce that our family will be leaving PPN at the end of the year. We have lived here for the past 8 years and have thoroughly enjoyed our time in Adelaide. I have been given the opportunity for a new job and role in New South Wales, starting in 2022. We will miss everyone and are looking to finish the year off on a high. The school will announce replacements for Mrs Davis and myself before the end of the year. Thank you all for contributing to our excellent memories and for making our time here so wonderful.

Food Policy 2021

Prescott Primary Northern is dedicated to promoting a healthy lifestyle and one way we can do that is by sharing some highlights of our Food Policy for 2021. Please take a few minutes to read through the policy below:

Peanuts and nuts at school: No peanuts are to be bought onto the campus, as we have anaphylactic students who may have a reaction if exposed to this.

Birthday celebrations at school:

-Parents are encouraged to keep it simple and healthy (e.g. dried fruit) and if something is bought in to share, that it is easily divided up, rather than being cut up and commercial package to indicate COVID safe preparation. For example, muffins or cupcakes as opposed to an uncut cake.

-Lolly bags are discouraged and may be sent back home. Sugar is a trigger for some children and we would like to minimise that.

We thank you for your support of the school and trust you can help us in these COVID times.

Please be considerate of those families who work hard to limit the sugar intake of their children.

Canteen

What a fantastic term we have had in the PPN Kitchen, it is such a pleasure to be making healthy and nutritious food for your children! I'd like to say a HUGE THANKYOU for all your support so far this year.

I am writing to you all to ask that you please not send your child to school with any food that requires boiling water (noodle cups etc) or food that needs to be reheated, for safety reasons we are unable to reheat any food that comes from home in the canteen.

I would also like to ask that if you plan on ordering any food for your child on the last day of term, could you please do so BEFORE Thursday the 23rd of September. We had almost half the school order lunches on the last day of term 2 and we need to be as prepared as possible, Flexischools orders are preferred. For this day only there will be no Pizzas available to order. Everything else on the menu will remain the same. 

Again, thank you for all your support, it is a privilege to serve you all. I wish you all a blessed and safe School Holidays!


With Gratitude
