Simplyfing Communication - Absences
Regular school attendance is important for your child’s learning and social development. If your child is absent from school, you must ensure that you provide the school with a written explanation.
Submit an absence notification through School Bytes
You can submit your child’s absence through the SchoolBytes Parent App or through contacting our office.
The School Bytes Parent Portal allows parents to view all their children in one portal and enables parents to provide details of a planned absence, if the absence details are known in advance - for example; to report an illness or a scheduled medical appointment.
Parents can also provide a response for any unexplained student absences that have been recorded by the school within 7 days of the absence.
Late arrival or early departure
Partial absences cannot be submitted on the School Bytes Parent App.
Parents are encouraged to advise the office directly of late arrivals due to appointments etc, and call 5 minutes ahead if collecting your child early.
A parent/carer must come to the office and sign their child/ren in or out of school via the school office.
