For Parents

We value and appreciate the contributions of parent volunteers, who give generously of their time and expertise to support our school. We welcome parent volunteers across various areas such as classroom assistance, excursions and events, and fundraising activities. 

Volunteers undergo a Working with Children Check and a Child Safety Code of Conduct induction before commencing their volunteer role.

  Throughout the year, we organise a series of parent information sessions to provide parents and guardians with valuable information about their child's education, wellbeing and development. These sessions cover a range of topics including curriculum, school programs, assessment and reporting, and student wellbeing. We encourage parents to attend these sessions and to ask questions and share their thoughts.

  We believe in the importance of regular communication between teachers and parents to discuss student progress and set goals for further development. 

We offer parent-teacher conferences throughout the year where parents can meet with their child's teacher to discuss academic progress, identify areas for improvement, and develop strategies to support learning at home.

Parents can support our school by making donations or participating in fundraising efforts. Their generosity contributes to the enhancement of our school facilities, resources and extracurricular programs. By making a donation or participating in a fundraising activity, parents can help provide educational opportunities that will benefit their own children and future generations. We appreciate the support of our parent community in maintaining Sorrento Primary School's commitment to providing the best possible educational experience for our students. 

At Sorrento Primary School, we use Compass as our primary communication tool because it allows us to connect effectively with families and streamline our communication. 

With Compass, our teachers and staff can communicate easily through a secure online platform that provides access to important information such as student attendance, school news and events, and academic progress reports.    

Compass also enables online payment for school fees and other expenses, making it a convenient and efficient way for parents to pay school bills. 

Their Care is Sorrento Primary School’s before and after-school care program, providing a safe, enjoyable and nurturing environment for children during non-school hours. 

Their Care delivers a structured and engaging program, including a range of activities that cater to different age groups and interests.   

Their Care is conveniently located on the school premises, making it easy and accessible for parents to drop off and pick up their children. 

  Our school uniform reinforces a sense of belonging and pride in our school community. Sorrento Primary School's uniform is available for purchase from our on-site second-hand uniform shop. New uniforms can be purchased from Beleza School Uniforms (Shop 5/855 Nepean Hwy, Rosebud). 

  Sorrento Primary School students have the option of travelling to and from school by bus, with the school operating bus services to various locations in the local area. Parents can obtain bus service information and application forms from our school office.

Every week students have the opportunity to order lunch from "Club Canteen", which can be ordered through the FlexiSchools app..
