Communication
It is crucial that the school office have the current and up-to-date contact details (phone numbers and email addresses). Please contact them if your details have changed.
At Benhurst Primary, we pride ourselves on our open-door policy. If you need to speak to your child’s class teacher, you can either contact the office and we will get back to you as soon as possible. Alternatively, you could contact teachers via Google Class.

What to bring to school
We encourage children to not bring backpacks into school unless absolutely necessary so as to limit the number of items they bring in from home each day.
All your children need to bring is:
- A named water bottle
- A named packed lunch (if not school dinners)
- Their reading record
