✍️Absence Notes on Compass ✍️

Dear Chilwell Families,

We’ve noticed an increase in student absences due to holidays and other reasons. Please remember to record these absences through the Compass portal by visiting your child's profile and selecting 'Add Attendance Note.' 

You can choose from options like 'family holiday' or 'medical/illness' from the drop-down menu, and add any additional details if needed. Both the classroom teacher and office will have access to this information.

For absences related to school activities, please call the office at (03) 5221 2738 so we can note this without affecting your child's attendance percentage.

Thank you in advance!
