Absence & Early Collection Procedure

In the event that a student is absent from the College, parents/carers will be notified via the College App or Parent Portal. Parents/carers of Secondary School students will also receive an SMS notification after 10:00am.

Parents/carers are asked to verify and give a reason for their child/ren's absence via the College App or Parent Portal. This can be done after you receive the notification after 10:00am on the day the absence was recorded.

To assist with recording any prior absences, parents/carers can notify the College via email [email protected] or call the College Reception on 4572 3633 advising student details and reason for absence. Parents/carers will still need to verify the absence via the College App or Parent Portal.

In the event that a student needs to be collected prior to the end of day please email [email protected] or call the College Reception on 4572 3633 advising the time they are to be collected.

To facilitate the effective transfer of students to Reception for sign-out the College requires a minimum of 30 minutes notice prior to the collection time.  Parents/carers are not to contact students directly.  Where a parent/carer contacts with less than 30 minutes notice the College will make all efforts but cannot guarantee the transfer of a student to Reception to meet the required collection time.

In the event that a student becomes unwell throughout the day they are to present to the College Clinic for support. Following assessment and review a call will be made to any parent/carer to collect their child/ren, where necessary.  Students should not make direct contact with parents/carers for this reason.
