School Procedures
Absence from School
Student Absence All student absences should be entered in Compass through the Compass Portal. Where possible parents should notify the school of any student absence prior to 9am on the day of absence (e.g. Family Holiday, Medical Appointment, etc).
Asthma
Department of Education and Early Childhood Development policy requires that all parents of children who suffer from asthma inform their school and provide an Asthma Management Plan, signed by a doctor.
Car Parking
If you drive your child to school, please note the parking restrictions that apply outside the school. Cars must not be driven into the school grounds. We have designated parking areas around the school boundary for parents to park whilst dropping off and collecting children.
Emergency Information
The school must always have your current phone numbers and emergency contact details. If your details have changed, please notify the school immediately.
Head Lice
Regular head lice checks are carried out at school and if lice and/or nits (eggs) are found in your child’s hair, appropriate treatment is to be started immediately by the parents. After treatment has commenced, your child may return to school the following day where he/she will be re-checked before returning to class.
Lost Property
The school will not accept responsibility for lost or damaged personal items belonging to students. All articles of clothing should be clearly labelled so that they can be returned to the owner if found.
