Dear Parents and Guardians, 

Regular school attendance is one of the most important ways you can support your child’s learning and development. Every day in school matters — each day helps your child build confidence, make progress, and stay connected with friends and teachers. 

When your child can go to school, they should go to school. Good attendance sets positive habits for life and helps ensure your child reaches their full potential. 

We understand that sometimes children are unwell or have unavoidable absences, but we ask for your support in keeping absenteeism to a minimum. 

To find out more about why every school day counts, and to access helpful supports for parents and schools, please visit:

You can also watch a short 30-second video ad on the importance of school attendance, see below.

Thank you for your continued support in helping every child get the most from their education.

If the school can be of any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us. 

Yours faithfully, 

Annette O'Brien 

Principal
