ABSENCES

Student absences should be reported to the school before 9.00am via the Compass portal or phoning the school office. Any unexplained absences will result in parents/guardians receiving an email at 9.30am on the day of non-attendance requesting they update Compass with the reason for non-attendance.

LATE ARRIVAL OR EARLY LEAVE

In order to minimise disruption to class and maximise learning opportunities for our students, we would like to remind you that the school day starts promptly at 9.00am. If your child is late for any reason, please sign in at the office via the Compass Kiosk and obtain a late pass to be given to the supervising teacher.

Please ensure that if your child is leaving early that they are signed out at the office using the Compass Kiosk and your child will be paged to come to the office.
