Daily Bulletin

Here are minutes for the Monday Briefing.

Week 3 – August 17, 2026  (Web view)

Dear All,

Please find the attached SLT Meeting Minutes of Week 2 for your information.

SLT – Aug 19

Planning a school trip? We have moved our RAMS and trip planning process from the old paper form to a new Microsoft Power App.

The NIS Trip Planning Hub is now the place to start when planning any school trip.

For a trip NIS has done before:
Complete the NIS Trip Planner & RAMS form.

For a brand-new trip that needs approval:
Start by completing the NIS New Trip Research Form. Once the trip is approved, you can then complete the NIS Trip Planner & RAMS form.

Helpful features

The new app makes trip planning easier by allowing you to:

• Save a form as a draft and return to complete it later.
• Copy a previous form to make repeated trips quicker to set up.
• Upload attachments and important supporting documents directly with your trip information.
• View your drafted and submitted forms in one place.

👉 Access the NIS Trip Planning Hub here:

Links to the new app are also available on the NIS HUB and the Section HUB pages.

If you have any questions or would like help using the new system, please come see us in the IT Department.
