Reporting Your Child's Absence

 

If your child is sick or absent, you are required to notify their school as soon as possible on the day of absence using one of the following methods:

  • Sentral Parent Portal 
  • Telephone the school office and press 1 for the absence line leaving a message with the following information; your child’s name, class, date of absences and reason.
  • Email the school absence email absence@bfps.vic.edu.au and provide your child’s name, class, date of absences and reason.  

Notifying us of your child’s absence either prior to, or on the day that they will be away, helps ensure the safety and well being of your child. ​ 

 

Why do I need to notify the school if my child is absent?

 

Schools need to know when and why a child is absent and you need to know if your child isn’t at school. All Victorian government schools are required to contact parents/carers as soon as practicable on the same day of an unexplained student absence. If we haven't received notification by 11am, parents/carers will be contacted through either email or text message.
