Will my child’s pictures be used in publications? – Media Consent Form
From time to time the school will take photos of the students or their work to use on the school website, in our publications or to promote the work of the school. Included in our enrolment pack is a media consent form which we would ask you to complete if you are happy for your child’s images to be used. We will not use images without this consent.
Is there Out of School Child Care available at the school?
OROOSH (Ocean Reef Out Of School Centre) is a separate entity from Ocean Reef PS. This facility is for before and after school care and located on the school site. If you require any information please visit their website – oroosh.com.au
What is a Muster?
Every class in the school, with the exception of the Kindergarten students, presents one assembly per year. The dates of Cabin Musters are published on the Term Calendars. Children are presented with Commendation awards at the muster.
If your child is to receive an award, you will receive notification a few days before the Muster inviting you to attend.
What do I do if I want to help?
Parent help is encouraged throughout the school. If you’d like to assist, please:
- contact your child’s teacher via DOJO

Can my child bring their Bicycles, Scooters or Skateboards to school?
Bicycle racks are provided for the children’s bikes. Students are responsible for providing their own locks. Children must wear helmets and bikes must be in good order. In accordance with child safety and police advice, children riding to school should not be under the age of 10. Children are prohibited from riding bicycles in the school grounds. Scooters and skateboards should be kept in this area too, not in blocks.
Can I bring my dog or other animals to school?
In accordance with Regulation 77 of the School Education Regulations 2000, dogs and other animals are not allowed on the school site at any point. Service dogs (guide dogs) are exempt from this regulation. Any person with a dog on site will be asked to leave the school grounds.
Does the School have a School Canteen?
The school does not have a Canteen but, we offer a lunch order service on Monday’s each week through the high school. Orders are placed on QKR and parent volunteers take it in turns to collect the lunches from the high school and deliver to ORPS.
