Parent Notified Absence
If a child is absent for the day, parents are required to contact the school by completing a Parent Notified Absence on the SIMON Everywhere App or phoning the school on 50252258. Unexplained absences will be followed up on the morning of the absence by text message.
OLSH Expectations
We all want our students to receive a great education, and the building blocks for this begin with students coming to school each and every day. Missing school can have a major impact on a child’s future – a student missing one day a fortnight will miss four full weeks by the end of the year. By Year 10 they’ll have missed more than a year of school. There is no safe number of days for missing school – each day a student misses puts them behind, and can affect their educational outcomes. Coming to school every day is vital!
