This is special and traditional Dairy Flat School day. It is a day for families of the school to have a day out together and get to know each other. It is also a day to build the team spirit across the school through the house teams. There are team events and competitions and lots of fun for all.
We encourage all parents/caregivers to attend. Please organise transport for your students if possible. If you have difficulty, let the school know. We may be able to organise a ride for your child. There will be no teachers present at school on this day as everyone attends the picnic. Please do not drop your child at school unless there is a parent picking them up to transport them to the picnic.
No student is to leave the venue (Site 2) at the end of the day unless they are with their parent/caregiver. The School has overall responsibility on the day. There will be a roll call in the morning and at the end of the day before students leave.
