Attendance Information

Regular attendance enables children to access a full education, enabling them to reach their full potential.  Monitoring of school attendance enables identification of students at risk and the early implementation of intervention strategies.  Our school values of Belonging, Caring, Learning, Persisting and Respecting underpin the importance of regular attendance. 

It is an expectation that parents provide a reason for absence on the same day of absence and for every day that the student is absent.

Students are welcome on site from 8:30am, class begins promptly at 8:45am.  

Late Arrival and Early Departures- When arriving after 8:45am students are required to sign in at the front office. If students are departing from school before 3:10pm (2:10pm on Thursday's) they must sign out at the front office. 

Absences- Please communicate all student absences as soon as possible. SMS Absence report line 0417 824 840, please include child's full name, class teacher and reason for absence. Unexplained absences will be followed up via text message each school day. 

Illness- If a student is absent for three or more consecutive days a medical certificate is required.
