Absence from school/Late for school/Leaving early

 

In response to Public Health guidelines to help minimise the spread of Covid 19, the following are some of the updated procedures/practices which we are putting in place:

Absence from school

If your child is absent from school we ask you to text the school on 087 1333207 explaining the reason for this absence, using the phone which you have given us as your contact number. (This replaces the need for you to send in a note the next day)

If you receive a text from the school informing you that your child is absent, then please respond by return explaining this absence.

Late for school

If your child is late for school, please text us on 087 1333207 to let us know. When your child arrives in school, they then need to report to Breda so that our records are correct on VS ware. (This replaces the need for your child to ‘sign in’ with Breda in the office)

Leaving school early

If your child needs to leave school early, please text the school that morning to inform us that you will be collecting them and the time at which you will be collecting them. The student must be collected by the parent as before. You then report to Mr. Lyons/Ms. Reynolds before you take your child from the school. (This replaces the need for you to ‘sign out’ your child)

We thank you for your continued cooperation and welcome any suggestions you may have to help us minimise risk to our students, parents and staff.

If you have any questions, please contact Mary, H.S.C.L. on 087 6158448
