Attendance matters! All day, every day, great learning and life experiences happen in classrooms. Kids need to be there to get the benefit and parents play a most important role in getting kids to school ready to learn.

Non-attendance, especially in Kindergarten and primary years, can lead to lower literacy abilities and a decreased graduation rate.

Increasingly we have programs to support students at school including snacks or meals. If as a parent you have difficulty getting your child to school please contact your school administrative team and they may have other ways to support.
