General Information

Attendance in school 

Attendance and Punctuality Research shows that there is a strong correlation between attendance, punctuality and achievement. 

Did you know that:

Attendance of 95% for the year equals 10 days that your child has been absent, that is 2   full school weeks of your child’s learning.

Attendance of 90% for the year equals 19 days that your child has been absent, that is     almost 4 school weeks missed.

Attendance of 85% for the year equals 29 days that your child has been absent, that is     almost 6 weeks of school weeks missed

Attendance of 80% for the year equals 39 days per year, that is over 7 school weeks         missed.

Arriving 5 minutes late every day adds up to over 3 days lost each year.

Arriving 15 minutes late every days adds up to 2 weeks’ absence a year

Arriving 30 minutes late every day adds up to 19 days absence a year.

A reminder to parents that all absences require a reason and a pre-approval is required for students wanting to take holidays during the term time. Please contact the school office for the relevant exemption forms.

2022 Reception students welcomed!

Ms Amber, Ms Alice and Ms Kim welcomed our new 2022 Reception students in our first two weekly orientation visits, supporting a smooth transition for them into school next year. These visits provide an opportunity for children to spend time in classrooms where they can familiarize themselves with their classrooms, teachers and school friends. These visits continue on Wednesday 24th November and 1st December.
