With school holidays fast approaching, please be reminded of the following from our Parent Handbook regarding extended leave during school terms:
Parents must notify the school in advance for a planned absence (such as a holiday or appointment) and this will be placed into the SchoolPro attendance system. Family holidays are required by State Law to be marked as unauthorised absences (See 3.3 in Attendance Policy with reference to the Education Act 2016). Parents wishing to take their children travelling during the school term for a period longer than 1 week, will need to complete an ‘Application for Extended Leave’ form and meet with the Principal for approval prior to travelling. This meeting will discuss a learning plan either before, during or after the trip to allow the student to catch up with work missed.
Please contact the school office if you require an Application for Extended Leave form.
