Late to school / Being absent
Key times:
- School gates open: 8:15am (No children should be on premises before this time)
- Classrooms open: 8:20am
- School starts: 8:30am
If your child arrives between 8:30-8:40am- please head straight to the classroom. The teacher will still record the child as being late (L) on the school system.
If your child arrives after 8:40am they will need to come to the office and collect a slip to hand to the class teacher. It is important for your child to do this as the school record needs to change from being absent to being present.
If your child arrives after 10:00am or is away then you will receive a message to indicate your child is absent unless an absentee form has been filled out / recorded.
Absentee forms:
There are 2 options available to inform us of your child being absent.

If your child is absent for longer than two days in a row, their classroom teacher will follow up via phone call or email.
Please notify the teacher for the reason of absence as soon as possible.
