Attendance is like a rollercoaster, some days it's up and some days it's down.  Whatever the trend, we are constantly working to improve and grow in attendance.

In order for students to learn and succeed at school, they need to show up! In fact, did you know, it is illegal for school-aged child not to attend school. Even more troubling though, is the learning a child will miss if they do not attend school. If your child misses as little as eight days each term, by the end of primary school they will have missed over a year of learning.

Acceptable Reasons to be away from school:

  • Illness
  • Essential appointment
  • Injury
  • Infectious disease
  • Bereavement/Sorry Days
  • Principal approved absence

Unacceptable Reasons to be away from school:

  • Birthdays, shopping trips
  • Visiting relatives
  • Helping parents at home
  • Weather (ie too hot, too cold, raining)
  • Holidays (unless prior approval granted)
  • Broncos lost the footy

Shout out the following classes as they have had 100% attendance on various days throughout this term:

Prep C, Prep P, Prep T, 1/2B, 3B, 3C, 3R, 4C, 4D, 4R, 5D

What a huge achievement and celebration it is to see these classes and the students' excitement when they have all of their peers in their class present.

These are days to celebrate and be proud that our students and families are here and ready to learn. 

We are here to work with you, so please contact the school on 4092 8100 if you need assistance.  Ask to speak the classroom teacher or the Hub team (Ms Tracy, Ms Fallon, Ms Deidre, Mrs Burton) to assist you in getting your child to school every day.
