Absences and Prolonged Absences

Absences
If children are away from school we require an explanation.  Either a note, email or a message on the answer phone is fine.  Regular attendance is important in consolidation of learning.  Please do not take absence from school lightly.  Being away 1 day each fortnight costs a child one tenth of their schooling.  Absentee returns will be made daily to the principal and unexplained absences will be followed up.  This is a legal requirement.  To report an Absence click  the button below, and fill out the form.

Report an Absence

Prolonged Absence 
When a special request for extended leave from school is contemplated, the matter should be discussed with the Principal outlining the reasons for the request.
