Student Attendance

What if my child has to stay away from school?

If your child has to be absent from school, you must inform the school and provide a reason for your child's absence.

A small number of absences may be accepted by the Principal. For example, if your child has to 

• Attend a special religious ceremony
• Is required to attend to a serious and/or urgent family situation (e.g: a funeral)
• Is too sick to go to school or has an infectious illness.

How can you provide a reason for absence?

There are a number of options available to notify the school: 

• Compass
• Send an email to gleadmin@arm.catholic.edu.au
• Send in a written note OR
• Call the school on 67321372

Is your child too sick for school?

Knowing whether your child is well enough to attend school can be tough for any parent. Please see the attached flyer for our schools updated COVID-19 guidelines.
