Recording Student Absences in Compass

We kindly remind all parents, guardians, and carers to ensure that any student absences or missed periods are promptly recorded in Compass.

Accurate attendance records are essential for supporting student wellbeing, learning, and safety. If your child is absent from school or misses specific periods during the day, please log into Compass and provide a reason for the absence as soon as possible.

If you experience any issues accessing Compass or require assistance, please contact the General Office or the relevant Sub-School.

Thank you for your ongoing support and cooperation.

Student Behaviour on Buses and in Public Spaces

We would like to remind all families that while students may be off school grounds when travelling to and from Eltham High School, they are still representing the school and are expected to uphold the values we share as a community.

This includes appropriate behaviour on public transport—particularly buses—and in public spaces such as shops and parks. We ask that you please speak with your child about the importance of being safe, respectful, and courteous in the wider community.

We appreciate your support in reinforcing these expectations.
