Schoolbox
We have officially transitioned to our new LMS, Schoolbox. 
Within Schoolbox there is access to learning resources, assessments & other important information our students may need like events in the school calendar.
Our vision is that this year, 2019, we will be able to provide individual logins for parents to access Schoolbox. This will allow you to view your child’s assessment tasks, progress in some tasks, the school calendar, classwork, permission notes, newsletters and so much more.
Please contact the school if you have any questions.

Uniform
At RPCS we take pride in our presentation and seek to present ourselves well to each other and to our community. The Uniform Shop operates as a service to the school community and provides new and second-hand items of school uniform for purchase. All profits made by The Uniform Shop are re-invested into the school.
What you need
RPCS requires each student to be in correct school uniform at all times and for all occasions throughout the school year and has developed specific primary and secondary uniforms to enable each student to meet this requirement.
Kindergarten starter packs
RPCS also offers uniform starter packs to all new Kindergarten students. This pack includes all of the items that Kindergarten students need to start school. Click here to view the Kindergarten uniform starter pack information sheet and/or complete the Kindergarten uniform starter pack order form.

Second-hand uniforms
Items of second-hand uniforms are available for purchase from The Uniform Shop during opening hours. Please contact The Uniform Shop on 9644 5144 during normal hours if you would like to discuss the items of second-hand uniform available
If you have uniform that you no longer require please consider donating it to The Uniform Shop. Staff will assess each item of second hand uniform donated to ensure it is of appropriate standard for sale. Proceeds from the sale of second-hand uniform are used to support the school and provide assistance to many families in our community.
Second-hand secondary blazers can also be sold to the school when no longer needed. To be considered by the uniform shop staff for purchase, a second-hand blazer must be of good quality and must be freshly dry-cleaned with the dry-cleaning receipt attached. The Uniform Shop staff will assess each blazer offered for purchase and determine a fair and reasonable price for each blazer. Please contact the uniform shop if you would like to enquire about selling your second-hand blazer to the school.
Feedback
If you have any feedback or suggestions regarding uniform we would love to hear from you. Please email us at uniform@rpcs.nsw.edu.au or contact the school office.

Students in Years 10 and 11 have the opportunity to complete work experience during Camps and Ministries week in Term 2. Students in Year 12 attend the Western Sydney Careers Expo which aids them in finding the right career path.
Every week that latest careers information, dates and events is placed onto the school portal – Schoolbox, which profiles specific industries, universities career paths, as well as up and coming free career events that students may attend to learn more about a course or career.

| Frequently Asked Questions: |

A: Parents may keep their children home from school, but must ensure that they are well supervised and follow the requirements set by the government for public safety. If you are intending to keep your children home, the school will need a letter or email to confirm that. These absences will not count against the student. |

A: We will be doing our best to ensure that students at home receive appropriate schoolwork and guidance for activities to assist their learning. Please be checking Schoolbox regularly for information about what online learning looks for your child. |
| Q: Is the school still open?
A: We are open and intend to stay open as long as possible. If you prefer to keep your children at home, schoolwork will be online. However, we are still open if you would like to continue sending your children to school as normal. |
| Q: Who do I contact if I am having IT problems?
A: If you are having IT problems (Schoolbox/school devices), you can contact our IT department who can help resolve the issues. |
