Parents should make a sincere effort to ensure that their children are on time for school in the morning and that they attend regularly to avoid interruption of teaching programmes. If you are running late, please stop by the office for a ‘late slip’ before heading to class.
In the event that your child will not be attending school for the day, please call or email the office between 8:30 and 9:05 am on the day of absence. If the school is not notified, the secretary will begin calling the homes of students not at school to ensure the safety of the children, co-operation of parents is appreciated.
When a child has been unable to attend school, upon returning he or she must submit a written note to the teacher advising the school of the reason of their absence.
The Ministry of Education requires notes. When the school is audited we are penalized for absent days over a threshold amount as well as days not supported by a note.
The same rules apply for children that are sick, or on holidays, Parents need to notify the school and then provide a signed note when the child returns.
