Morning Tea Information Sessions

We hold regular parent/carer morning teas throughout each term. In Talkabout these are generally held just after children are dropped off in the mornings. We will notify families several weeks prior to each of the morning teas so that appropriate arrangements for attendance can be made. Topics are selected from parent interest and attendance is purely on an interest basis. These are a good opportunity to meet and chat with other parents/carers in similar situations. We will be sending out invitations throughout the year.

Uniforms

Talkabout students do not have a compulsory uniform, however, there is a Talkabout polo shirt that is available for purchase from Reception or from the Family Liaison officer if this is preferred.
