Deputy Principal
1000 Hours
By law, children need to receive 1000 hours of supervision per year. Instruction starts at 8:50 am and your child needs to be here ready to start work at that time, not 5, 10, 15 or 30 minutes later. Those early minutes at the start of the day could include important knowledge that your child may need for the rest of their lives, how are you going to ensure they don’t miss out because they were late to school?
If your child arrives after the teacher has marked the roll, that is counted as an absence and if you do not provide a reason for their lateness then it is marked as an unexplained absence. Students also need to go to the school office to collect a late slip before going to their classroom.
Support Staff
I also want to acknowledge the vital contributions all of our wonderful support staff make to our school. Our school is like a village and for it to grow and prosper we need every member to work together and believe me without our staff, such as our cleaners, road crossing supervisors, groundsman, teacher aides and office staff, our school could not function as well as it does. Thank you.
