Student Absences:
Please remember to inform the school if your child is going to be late or away from school.
Teachers generally check Seesaw/email messages just before and/or immediately after school as they are busy teaching during class. As such, it is important to also advise the office of any absences so that the student roll is updated accordingly.
You can call the school office on 9560 8491 and leave a voice message or email: info@leonardsgwav.catholic.edu.au and Seesaw/email your child's classroom teacher.
Government legislation mandates that the school seek clarification of a student's unexplained absence after the morning roll has been taken and the child is noted as being absent. Our school will contact you as soon as practicable on the day, if your child is absent and you haven’t notified the school as to why.
Note that we do still require written notification of why a child is absent on any day.
Your child's safety and wellbeing is paramount and we trust you appreciate the importance of notifying the school of any delays or absences in a timely manner.
School Hours 8:45am to 3:15pm
School gates are officially opened and supervised from 8:30am and students can make their way to the classroom when the first bell is rung at 8:37am. The second bell will be rung at 8:45am to indicate the school day has officially begun. Any children arriving after the second bell at 8:45am would need to make their way to the school office via the Springvale Road entrance to collect a Late Pass.
Please note the Allen Street gates will be locked at 8:45am meaning that if you arrive late at the Allen St car park you will not be able to gain access into the school. We also ask parents who park at the Allen Street entrance and enter the school to please ensure they leave the premises before 8:45am to avoid being ‘locked-in’ and needing to walk around.
Car Park
Springvale Road entrance is strictly a park your vehicle and walk your child into school. The Allen Street car park can accommodate drop off (between 8:35am-8:45am) and pick up (between 3:15-3:30pm). Please only park within bays and follow the loop.
