Attendance

Arriving Late

A reminder that all students, including Kindergarten and Pre-Primary, must report to the front office to collect a Welcome Pass if arriving after the 8:40am bell.

If the gates are still open after 8:40am, please still come to the office to collect a Welcome Pass, as your child/ren will otherwise be marked absent and you may receive a message requesting an explanation for the absence.

This applies even if you have already notified the school via Compass or phone.

Leaving Early

If you need to collect your child before the end of the school day, please go to the front office to sign them out on the tablet. You will be given an early leave pass to take to your child’s teacher from the school officers.

Absences

If your child is away due to illness, an appointment or another reason, please notify the school using the Compass app/phone call. Otherwise, you will receive an absent message at 10:00am.

Holiday Plans During Term Time

If your child will be away for a holiday during the school term, please enter the dates in Compass, or email the front office on lakelands.ps@education.wa.edu.au with the details of the planned leave.

Family holidays are encouraged to be taken during the school holidays and not during school terms. When you child is absent from school on family vacation this is recorded an unacceptable reason.
