Important College 

Information

Student Absences

We wish to remind all families the process of notifying the College when your child is absent or attending an appointment during the school day. Parent notification is required when your son is arriving late, leaving early, absent or has planned absences. Should students arrive after 8.40am, they must sign in at Student Services. 

• PAM is the official platform for families to register the absence or illness of their child, for planned appointments or holidays ahead of time. PAM is secure and accessible 24 hours a day. 
• Your child’s absence / late arrival or early finish must be registered by 9.45am that day.
• If the 9.45am cut off has passed, you must register your child’s absence for that day with the relevant campus via the following email: 

Bentleigh East     absentee.student.bentleigh@stbedes.catholic.edu.au

Mentone                absentee.student.mentone@stbedes.catholic.edu.au  

Parents receive a SMS if their child is absent from his morning Homeroom or Tutor Group.
