In the event of your child is absent, a note, text, email (using the form below) or phone contact must be made by the parent/caregiver in order to explain their absence.  We are required, by law, to maintain accurate records of a student’s attendance.

These records are audited by the Ministry of Education, with the expectation that they are accurate and complete.  In the event of an unexplained absence, a process will be instigated to establish valid reasons for the absence.

This may include:

1. A letter home sent home asking for an explanation.
2. Follow up contact.
3. Referral to a truancy officer.

It is in the best interests of all parties that the school is informed if a child is or is going to be absent from school for any reason.

Thank you for your cooperation in ensuring your child attends school punctually and regularly.
