WHAT DO I DO WHEN:-
 
ABSENT FROM SCHOOL
A note of explanation from my parent is required to be given to my Period 1 Teacher the day of my return to school. If I am likely to be absent for several days, I will ask my parents to phone the school, or if I am going on holidays etc, my parents will notify the school before I go away.
 
 
LATE TO SCHOOL
Report to the Absence Office for a late slip. My name and the time will be entered in the computer. I will show my late slip to my teacher when I arrive at class.
 
WISHING TO LEAVE SCHOOL FOR SOME REASON DURING THE DAY
I must have a note from my parent or caregiver requesting permission for me to leave school at a specific time and giving the reason. I will report to the Absence Office before 9.00a.m. and place my note in the box provided on the counter. I will collect my Early Leave Pass from the Absence Office before I leave for my appointment.
 
UNABLE TO PARTICIPATE IN SPORT
I will report to the Absence Office before 9.00a.m. and place a note requesting that I be allowed to go to a supervised room during sport periods.
 
I FORGET MY SPORT MONEY OR BUS MONEY
I must report to the Sport Organiser early in the day.
 
I HAVE LOST PROPERTY
I will check the room/area where I left it, ask the teacher(s), then I will check the Lost Property collection at the Front Office.
 
FEELING SICK
If in class, I will get a permission note from my teacher to report to Deputy or Head Teacher Welfare then to the clinic or to be sent home, if needed. If outside the class, I will report to a member of staff. In cases or a more serious injury, someone should get teacher assistance.
 
WANTING TO SEE A SCHOOL COUNSELLOR
I should make an appointment with the Deputy Principal or directly with the school counsellors. The Counsellor will send for me as soon as he/she is able. My parents may make an appointment by telephoning the school.
 
I AM NOT IN CORRECT UNIFORM
I will bring a note from home explaining the situation. The note will be brought to the Deputy Principal who will issue an out-of-uniform note. I will be in correct uniform the next day or as soon as possible.
 
I AM BEING BULLIED, HARASSED OR PICKED ON
I do not have to put up with this treatment. I will talk to my Teacher or my Year Adviser, School Counsellor or Deputy Principal who will assist me in solving the problem.
 
I NEED MEDICATION DURING SCHOOL TIME
I will bring the required dosage to the Deputy Principal and I will collect it and take it at the arranged time at the Library. I will not carry around any medication except my asthma inhaler (If I need one).
