Student Absence
In the event of a child’s absence for the day, parents are required to inform the school. Absences can be reported conveniently through the MyCE app under the My Student tab. Alternatively, parents can reach out to the school absentee hotline at (4037 9960) or via email. As a safety precaution for your child, parents will be contacted via SMS each day if no absence notification is received.
Section 176(1)(b) of the Education (General Provisions) Act provides that each parent of a child of compulsory school age has the obligation to ensure their child is attending school on every school day, for the educational program in which the child is enrolled. Failure to comply with the obligation in s.176(1)(b), without a reasonable excuse, is an offence.
Late Arrival or Early Departure
Students arriving after the bell at 8.30am are considered late and must sign in at the Student Services Window and collect a late slip notice.
For parents collecting students before the end of the school day, please remember to sign them out at the school reception. We emphasise the importance of regular attendance, and we kindly ask parents to minimise appointments during school hours whenever feasible, and to plan vacations within allocated holiday periods to support their child in maintaining good attendance rates.
Contact Details
It is important that parents inform the office staff of any changes in address, contact names, telephone numbers or other particulars on the original enrolment form. This information must be given to the school staff, as accurate enrolment details are essential to the well-being and safety of students. Parents can do this via the Parent Portal or by emailing the school at secretary.manunda@cns.catholic.edu.au
