Student Absence and Lateness

There is absolutely no doubt that regular attendance provides the best opportunity for students to learn to their full potential.  In saying that, we do not want sick children at school as they struggle to concentrate and potentially spread infections to others. 

If your child is away from school for any reason, you are required to contact the school and let us know.  This can be done through the Compass App, a text message to our attendance phone with your child's Full Name on 0419 345 857 orby calling the main office on 51471790 you can also send anemail  to maffra.sc@education.vic.gov.au

The department of Education have altered their policy on student attendance and staff are now required to contact families of absent children each day, if the school has not been notified.

If you child is away from school and we are not notified, you will be phoned, emailed or messaged through our attendance program etc, to ensure we can account for all student each day.

Not present/late letters will be sent home weekly.  Parents and carers of students are required to provide an explanation for the absence/late by signing and returning the letter to the main office  or the  students year level office.
