Drop Off and Pick Up

All students are to be dropped off and picked up at the front of the school. There is no entry past the car park unless a parent/guardian is picking up a child who is ill or injured. The school bus shelter is for buses only and is not to be used by parents as a drop off/pick up point.

A Parent's Guide to Compass

The guide will assist you with navigating the portal and includes step by step information on how to complete key processes.

(Please note: some processes details in the guide may not be applicable (or in use) at our school).

If you have any questions regarding your Compass parent portal or are unable to access Compass, please contact the school for assistance.

Reporting Absences through Compass

Please note that - in order to comply with government guidelines, the options when reporting absences via Compass have changed. There are now only 6 options for parents to report an absence:

medical/illness - this includes dental or any form of medical appointment - this is an approved absence
bereavement - this is an approved absence
truancy - this is not an approved absence and will be further investigated
parent choice - this is not an approve absence and will be further investigated
family holiday - this is an approved absence
religious/cultural observance - this is an approved absence

Note that "Parent Choice" is not in the eyes of the Education Department a valid reason for a student not to be at school. Regular ongoing attendance is vital for the continuity of a successful education. Unapproved absences will be followed up by the school, as per DET guidelines.

For any assistance with using Compass, logging in, or using any of the many features, please contact the school and we will happily help.

Compass Cards

All students please note that the new ID cards now work with the sign in/sign out kiosks. Students should have their cards with them at all times, as they are used for:

signing in and out of school
borrowing netbooks
cashless payments at the cafeteria
borrowing from the library
printing/copying/scanning from the photocopiers
PTV student ID

Keep them safe and secure. Replacement cost is $10.
