All children have a designated undercover eating area and this is supervised by staff.  We encourage parents to minimise packaging as much as possible so the use of a lunch box with washable containers is recommended.

The school has an arrangement with School Lunch Online for delivered lunch orders. Lunch orders are placed directly with the supplier online.

School Lunch Online is available every school day.

Orders must be made before 8am each day and can be made in advance.

Please update your child’s YEAR GROUP annually. Staff are also welcome to order.

If you haven’t previously ordered, you will need to set up an account at:

The school does not take responsibility for the ordering of lunches. Older students have a roster system in place to deliver the lunches to each classroom.

During school excursions your child must bring their lunch.

“Hangout on Hay” are our school lunch supplier:  https://hangoutonhay.com.au/ They are based in Subiaco.

Quintilian Party Hire Application Form

The school actively encourages after hours use of the grounds and buildings by various Quintilian Community  and external groups; for music and language tuition, drama and dance, workshops, meetings and parties. We also host many functions organised by the Events Committee, eg quiz nights, new parent evenings and BBQs. Anyone interested in using/hiring our school facilities should contact our reception for further details.

The school does not have a formal uniform so our children dress suitably for the climate and planned activities. We have a “no hat, no play” policy during summer to protect from over exposure to the sun. One polo shirt/T shirt is required to be purchased and this is worn when the children go on excursions, play sport, go on camp or are representing Quintilian.

The school actively encourages children of suitable age to walk or ride to school and there are footpaths surrounding the school, however there are no cross-walks nearby. Some streets have 40km/h flashing speed signs that come on during peak periods. There are bus and train services close to the school. Exit gates are supervised to make sure that only children allowed to walk or ride home do and all others are kept back until a parent picks them up. Many parents choose to drive their children but there is limited onsite parking. There is a slip lane for drop off and pick up but no cars are allowed to be left unattended in this area.

The school is very fortunate to own 2 x 27 seat buses to use when required.  All the teachers have licenses to drive them. They are equipped with seat belts and air-conditioning and are very comfortable. The school uses the buses for all excursions and camps.

The school holds its Annual General Meeting in March of each year.

School assemblies are held each Friday morning at 9:00am and feature a nominated class performance. The children love the opportunity to perform in front of the school and parents, grandparents and family friends are welcome to attend.

Each class has a parent social co-ordinator to arrange social events for the year group parents and students. They also ensure new families are welcomed and are essential for activating the nurturing and accepting culture of the school.

Orientation Mornings are held in late November and are an opportunity for new and existing students to meet one another and their teacher for next year.

Invitations are sent to each new child and their parents, asking them to join us.

Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten –
Thursday 28 November 2024, 9am-10.30am
