School Watch

Empty schools can become targets for unlawful entry, arson, stealing, graffiti and property damage, especially during school holiday periods. This comes at a cost to the whole community and not just the financial cost of repairs.

Look, Listen, Report. Call School Watch on 13 17 88.

Student Absences

Schools ask parents to state a reason when reporting a student absence so they can properly record and manage attendance. Schools must follow compulsory attendance requirements set by the Queensland Department of Education. Recording the reason helps determine whether the absence is approved or unexplained. If a student is absent without explanation, schools must check the student’s wellbeing. Some examples of stating a reason may include: 

• Illness / Sick
•  Appointment
• Family reasons
• Holiday

We appreciate your cooperation and commitment to keeping us informed.
