Attendance at School is Compulsory
Recording Attendance
Children’s attendances and absences are recorded daily via Compass. Teachers complete an AM and a PM roll each day.
Absence Notification
Government regulations require that explanations be provided by parents for all absences on the day of the absence.
Please contact the office via phone (9730 1254), email yarra.glen.ps@education.vic.gov.au or use the Compass app to advise the school of any absences.
Unexplained attendances will be followed up on the day of the absence. You will be sent an email or notification with details of the absence. Please contact the office to advise the reason for the absence.
Late Arrival
If your child is late arriving at school, please come to the office to receive a Late Pass. Your child will give their teacher their Late Pass. Their late arrival will be noted on our system. Late is considered any time after 9:00am.
Early Leaver
If your child is required to leave school before the end of the school day, please come to the office to receive an Early Leavers Pass. You may then proceed to your child’s classroom and give their teacher the Early Leavers Pass.
