Absences
Attendance/Absences:
The students are expected to attend regularly but should your child be ill please do not send her/him to school. If your child does become ill at school we will contact you or the approved contact person.
To ensure that all children arrive safely at school each day we operate the following system to account for all students.
After roll check in each room, at the start of the day, the names of all children absent are checked through the computer system. The parents of any student unaccounted for will be contacted by text to check the reason for absence. Please reply to this text if you receive one.
If your child is going to be absent from school, please contact us in one of the following ways:
Phone 09 423 8042, and follow instructions to leave a message. This can be done at anytime (24 hours).

Will Your Child Be Absent for Some Time?
If you know you're going to be away from school for 3 days or more during term time (holiday within or outside NZ, hospitalisation, etc), please contact the office to let us know.
