Student Attendance

Student attendance at school is essential to assist students to maximise their potential. Regular attendance at school is also compulsory and reference should be made to your child's handbook for school based procedures and also to the document provided below in relation to State Legislative requirements.

The school accepts a number of different methods of explanation for absence but the preferred system is as follows:

To facilitate the explanation of absence, the school alerts parents/carers when their child/children are late or absent from school with an SMS text message to the mobile number of a parent/carer. A return text message may be sent by parents/carers giving a reason for absence which is recorded against the child's attendance record. This two-way messaging system is a quick and convenient system for both the school and parents/carers and we encourage utilisation of this service.
