Students are expected to be at school all day, every day, unless they are too sick to attend. Every day counts in their learning. For extended leave of absence, for example, overseas holidays, please complete an Application for Leave During Holidays form. The principal will provide an approval for extended leave.
To avoid students having UNEXPLAINED ABSENCES, Parents/Guardians are reminded to inform the School by 9.15am via:
Email: office@stjamesnng.catholic.edu.au
Phone: 03 5942 5404
Please provide the students name, date and reason for absence. If your child has an unexplained absence recorded, the school will contact you to confirm your child’s absence.
