Disco FAQs
What is “Disco Backstage”?
- All children please come to school in their disco outfit, as it is a mufti day.
- K-3: Kids will leave their bags outside their classrooms on their hooks and then to the hall to eat before the start of the Disco.
- Kindy and Year 1 kids will enter the Hall before the official start of the Disco so that they can see the layout and view the activities before the music starts. Kindy teachers or assistants will also be present.
- Years 4-6: Kids will leave their bags outside their classrooms on their hooks and will be in a disco waiting room until 5.15pm when OOSH staff will escort them to the Disco.
What can my child wear?We recommend kids wear something comfortable. Consider the weather & make sure that your child can use the bathroom independently with ease. If your child is inspired by the theme, they are most welcome to dress-up!
How do I pick up my child? There is no drive-by pick up service from the Disco. Parents & caregivers will need to pick up their child from the Hall. K-3 will be ready to pick up at 4.30pm and 6.45pm for 4-6. Your child can be collected from outside the hall just near the canteen. A volunteer will get your child from the hall when you arrive. Please wait patiently and follow the directions of the Disco volunteers.
Can I pick my child up early? You can pick your child up early. Come to the volunteer check-in desk and a Disco volunteer will assist you. Please note that Kindy kids attending Disco Aftercare will enter the Hall before 3pm. Last year we found that some of these kids were ready to leave the Disco around 4pm.
Collect your bags stored in their usual spot outside your child's classroom.
What if I am concerned that my child may become anxious? If your child may be overwhelmed or anxious about attending the Disco or you know they need a support person, a parent or carer MUST Volunteer at the Disco. You will be allocated to duties such as overseeing the Disco Floor.
Parent or carers who have not registered to Volunteer are not allowed inside the Disco Hall.
When does the K-3 Disco finish? K-3 families need to leave the Disco area by 4.30pm to allow PTF Volunteers to prepare for the Years 4-6 Disco. Please be aware of our neighbours and keep noise levels to a minimum when leaving.
- The PTF will also have a Disco photo opportunity for parents and students at the School entrance gate.
- The PTF or the School may engage a professional photographer to take photos of children and parents at the Disco for the purposes of internal or external marketing/promotion. All of these photos will be reviewed by the IGS Director of Media and Communications.
Does my child need to bring their ticket to the Disco? No. We will have attendee lists and will mark your child off either at Disco waiting area or at the entrance to the Disco.
Administrative FAQs
* trybooking payments require a credit card and incur a 50 cent non-refundable booking fee.
* Some questions are mandatory (indicated with an asterisk *) and registration won't progress until you complete these.
* You can register and pay for children attending both the junior and senior discos in one online session. Just register for one disco (either junior or senior), then before paying click on Continue Shopping / This event and register any child(ren) for the other disco (either senior or junior) before completing payment.
* The parent / carer contact details you register with your trybooking payment will be held by the IGS PTF as the correct emergency contact details for your child on disco day unless you specify otherwise. If you aren't yet sure if you'll be picking up on disco day, please supply an alternate parent / carer's details for each child you are registering.
