The use of cell phones is forbidden on our school premises as well as in any school vehicle or on school outings.  All visible cell phones will be confiscated and the parent will have to fetch that cell phone from the office.  The parent must make an appointment with the Principal to retrieve the cell phone. 

We have installed telephones at critical points in the school and in an emergency we (a staff member) can make the call to a parent or the parent can call the school and we will inform the child. We have a very effective SMS-system by which all the parents are notified of any sport cancellations and changes. We are also in radio contact with staff on our premises. 

Our staff have team lists/class lists with the contact numbers of parents and parents will have the contact number of the specific staff member. This is for emergencies only and any inappropriate calls will be reported. Please note that most staff use true caller and call recording.
