Attendance - every minute matters!

Being on time for school is essential for learning. It means your young person can: • Be ready for class • Catch up with their friends • Know what’s happening for the day • Be ready to learn

Attending school every day is essential for the overall development of each person. It means your young person can: 

• Raise their reading, writing, numeracy/maths and other social skills
• Feel confident in the classroom
• Make friends and build social skills
• Build good healthy habits for life. 

When young people are regularly absent from school they miss out on important schoolwork, find it difficult to maintain friendships, and can become unsettled.

Every minute and every day matters.
