Absence Notifications

Please let the school know if your child will be away for the day by recording their absence through PAM or calling the school at 5998 9293. We will be sending an absence notification to parents when students have unexplained absences for the day. If we do not hear from you, we will get in touch with the emergency contacts in your list, then Victoria Police if unable to reach you. This is a requirement under our Child Safe legislation.

We strongly encourage our parents to bring children to school early. Gates will be opened at 8.25am and children enjoy meeting up and playing with peers before the learning begins.

As part of our child safe procedures, when your children arrive late, they will be asked to wait in the office to log in and they will need to be escorted to their classrooms. 

Collection from school - appointments

If you are picking up your child for a scheduled reason, please note that we are unable to release students during recess or lunch breaks. We ask that you plan pick-up times outside of these periods.

Recess - 11:05am - 11:35am             

Lunch - 1:45pm - 2:15pm

Ensure that you contact the school by phone ahead of time to alert office staff and allow them to inform your children. Logging it on PAM will not alert the office.

We will not approve regular early pickup without a meeting with senior leadership and an agreeement as to the necessity of the early departure. Every minute missed from school is an opportunity to learn that cannot be replaced.

Registrations are now open for the Melbourne Demons AFLW All Girls Term 3 Auskick & Superkick Centres, providing girls with the opportunity to learn football, make new friends and connect with the Melbourne Demons AFLW team throughout the season.
