Absences

To notfy the school of an absence, please contact the front office on 8724 7300. Parents can also notify the school of an absence via Compass. 

Notes (including doctor's certificates) must be provided within seven (7) days to explain an absence; notes of explanation, doctor's certificates and other documents can be loaded into Compass.

Please contact the office for any absences longer than 2-3 days. 

If the absence is in relation to an assessent task, please ask to speak with the relevant Guidance Coordinator. Students will need to lodge an appeal for illness/misadventure on their return to school.  Students can lodge their appeal via the form found on the Forms page.

Applications for Leave (Travel)

Applications for Leave (eg travel) must be made in writing to the College Principal.

Students must be in school each day, between the ages of 6-17 years, therefore, parents will need to apply if they intend to travel during school terms. Parents are encouraged to plan travel during the school holidays to minimise the distruption to their daughter's learning and the impact absence has on learning growth.

If you are intentding to travel during the school term for any reason please contact the school office and speak with an Attendance Officer. You will be sent an application form to complete.

Please return the application form for assessment by the College principal. The following must accompany the form:

Applications for leave must be provided propspectively ie before you intend to travel - applications for leave cannot be approved after the travel has taken place.

Compass

Compass is the main way we communicate with you, the parent/carer. You can notify the school of an absence, add certificates for absences, receive notifications for excursions & other school events and book interviews for Parent-Teacher Conferences. All school reports are shared with you & your daughter on Compass.

You can download the Compass app from the App Store or Google Play.

New parents are sent a welcome email at the start of the school year (or when a new enrolment is approved).

If you cannot access Compass, please contact the front office.
