School Drop Off and Pick Up Zones

All students are to be dropped off and picked up at the front of the school. There is no entry past the car park unless a parent/guardian is picking up a child who is ill or injured. The school bus shelter is for buses only and is not to be used by parents as a drop off/pick up point. Please note: there is now a 5km speed zone into the school. Your co-operation with this would be appreciated.

Reporting your child's absence via text

If you child is going to be absence from school, you can now report via text message on: 0438 241 522.

Please include the following information in your text message:

your child's full name
reason for absence
the days your child will be absent

Reporting Absences through Compass

Please note that - in order to comply with government guidelines, the options when reporting absences via Compass have changed. There are now only 6 options for parents to report an absence:

medical/illness - this includes dental or any form of medical appointment - this is an approved absence
bereavement - this is an approved absence
truancy - this is not an approved absence and will be further investigated
parent choice - this is not an approve absence and will be further investigated
extended family holiday - this is an approved absence
religious/cultural observance - this is an approved absence

Note that "Parent Choice" is not in the eyes of the Education Department a valid reason for a student not to be at school. Regular ongoing attendance is vital for the continuity of a successful education. Unapproved absences will be followed up by the school, as per DET guidelines.

For any assistance with using Compass, logging in, or using any of the many features, please contact the school and we will happily help.
