Important Message
Any student leaving Kildare Catholic College during the year to attend another school, TAFE or commence full time employment needs to collect a “Leavers Form” from the front office and have it signed by the Resource Centre, Canteen, House Coordinator, and the Principal. The student must then have this form signed by their parent/guardian and returned to the front office.
Application for Leave
If students need to be absent from school for ten or more days they now need to obtain approval from the Principal and complete an Application For Leave Form. This has been put in place by the government and we need to commit to this procedure. Forms are available at the front office or downloaded below. If approval is not given or sought from the Principal, students will be marked as an unexplained absence.
Please download leave applications: Here
Medical Plans
NSW Department of Education advises that:
"When students need help with health issues at school, parents may need to consult with their medical practitioner about the implications of the child's health condition for their schooling and any actions that need to occur during the school day. Parents need to convey relevant information from the medical practitioner to the Principal in writing."
If your child has a medical plan please ensure that the College has a copy. If you need more information please contact Natalie O'Reilly on (02) 6932 6100 or oreillyn@ww.catholic.edu.au

Dear Parents/Guardians,
The College Swimming Carnival will be held on Thursday 20th February between 3:30 pm – 8.30 pm (Approx). Below is a brief list of the major arrangements that will be in place for the day.
As it is a twilight carnival, Students will have regular timetabled lessons during the day, however, they are not to bring their computer devices to school. It will be a technology-free day.
Students will walk down to the Oasis under the supervision of teachers.
During the normal school day, students are able to wear their sports uniform and will be given the opportunity to change prior to leaving for the carnival.
Students are encouraged to be in house colours/ fancy dress for the swimming carnival and “Fashions of the Pool” parade.
Students nominate the races they wish to enter via a google form. This is on the daily notices that all students see each morning.
Please note that face paint, crepe paper, balls, water pistols, air horns and zinc are not allowed.
All students are encouraged to participate in as many events as possible to gain points for their House.
There will be some novelty events held throughout the day to allow non- swimmers the chance to participate.
Swimming events will start at 4:00 pm sharp and conclude between 8 pm and 8.30 pm. Students will be dismissed from the pool at the completion of the carnival.
It is expected that all students attend the swimming carnival and consequently normal procedures concerning absenteeism will apply to this event.
In the event of inclement weather please refer to student emails, Compass, Kildare Facebook Page and the College website.
There will be a free sausage sizzle, however, students should supplement this by bringing their own food. They will also have the opportunity to purchase food from the Oasis canteen.
Friday the 21st of February is a Pupil free day.
If you have any further queries, please do not hesitate to contact the College on 69326100.
