Early Leave & Attendance

Early Leave/Gate Pass Process

• No student is to leave the school grounds without a written permission note from a parent or guardian.

• See the relevant year Deputy prior to school starting to get your note signed.

• The note must have the date, reason and parent signature along with mobile phone number. This note is then shown to the classroom teacher and taken to front office just prior to the departure time.

• When signing out make sure to go the office before you leave the school grounds to sign out. 

• When returning back to school (eg after an orthodontist appointment) make sure to return first to the office to collect a late/return slip to bring to your class teacher. 

Attendance

• If a student is absent from school they have 7 days to amend the absence in SENTRAL or it will remain unexplained.

• Parents can notify school via a written note, phone call or email as an alternate method of explaining absences.

• Leave that is longer than 10 school days requires the Principals permission and must be sought well in advance of the leave. 

• If a student has a planned absence please inform the school office and teachers as soon as possible. Liaise with your teachers as to the work that will be missed.
