Principal Welcome PDF Print E-mail

Welcome to Caboolture East State School. When it comes to schools Caboolture East is truly the Sunshine Coast's best kept secret. Hiding at the end of a quiet suburban street, if you peek between the trees you’ll find something very special.

In 2009 Caboolture East State School caters for students from Prep to Year 7. Just under 500 students call Caboolture East their home away from home.

With excellent facilities, large open spaces in which to run and play and small class sizes, you'd hardly believe you're just minutes from the Sunshine Coast.

We're committed to maintaining our supportive school in a caring environment, one that offers your child the very best. Above all else what we continue to focus on is preparing your child for their future.

As Principal of Caboolture East I recently asked my staff "What makes Caboolture East so special?" They replied with:

* Small class sizes

* Close and dedicated staff

* Positive relationships with students and parents

* Beautiful grounds

* Quality Education

* The Community

* The Atmosphere

* Everyone knows everyone and looks out for everyone

* Extra Curricular Opportunities

More important than reading this is the opportunity to come and see why Caboolture East is worthy of servicing your educational needs. I encourage you to come in and see for yourself the opportunities that await your son or daughter at Caboolture East State School. Your investment of time will not be wasted.

Don't hesitate to contact us.

Regards

Julieanne Wilson

MESSAGES TO STUDENTS IN THE AFTERNOONS
It would be appreciated if parents could finalise pickup details with their children before school. We understand that emergency situations do arise but it is sometimes difficult to locate classes and students who may be out on the oval or doing a class activity other than in their classroom. Delivery of messages at this time of day cannot be guaranteed. Thank you for your co-operation.
 
LATE ARRIVALS
Students arriving after the 9.00am bell are required to report to the office, sign in and receive a late slip which then must be given to the teacher upon arrival at the class. Any student who arrives late to class without a late card will be redirected to the office.
 
SCOOTERS & SKATEBOARDS
A reminder that students are not to bring scooters/skateboards to school. This is a very dangerous mode of travel at our peak drop off and pick up times.
 
VOLUNTEERS TO THE SCHOOL
A reminder to all volunteers that it is a legal and audit requirement for you to sign in at the volunteers/visitors register when you arrive at school and sign out when you finish. This includes all parent helpers/volunteers who are helping out in classrooms etc. You must keep your sign-in pass with you at all times whilst you are on the school grounds. A spot check will be done from time to time.
 
ARRIVALS AT SCHOOL BEFORE 8.15AM
