Dear Parents and Carers, 

A gentle reminder that all absences must  be explained within 7 days otherwise they will automatically move into 'unexplained' and cannot be retrieved.  These days will be reflected in the students school reports. It is easy to do via Compass and is best done on the day so the task is not forgotten. 

Changes to afternoon arrangements

Please send any changes for afternoon arrangements through to quiadmin@arm.catholic.edu.au rather than personal email addresses, just in case that person is away for the day. Changes need to be made by 2pm to allow time to enter them on to our travel list and share them with the children.
