Attendances Changes

Dear Parents,
as you will be aware, before we start the second half of the year we sent home request forms that allow parents to request changes in their child's attendance patterns. Thank you to all the parents who sent these back at the end of last term and over the holidays.
I thought it would be wise to take this opportunity to remind parents about how registration and changes in attendance patterns work at Little Princes.
  • Firstly it is important to note that, except in cases of emergency or unavoidable changes in family circumstances, we prefer all attendance changes to happen at the end or start of terms.
  • When changing your child's attendance at the end of a term using a change of attendance form you have received from our registrar Carolyn Roney, your requested change is confirmed unless our registrar contacts you. If you are contacted this will mean that there were no spaces available on the requested days and you may need to consider an alternative day. If you are not contacted this means your changes are confirmed.
  • If you need to request changes to your child's attendance patterns during the term due to unforeseeable circumstances this must be done in writing through our registrar at croney@pac.edu.au, it cannot be facilitated by our teaching staff. In this case Carolyn will contact you to confirm or adjust patterns.
  • Please note that reductions to half days are considered an attendance change, even if students continue to come on the same days. These must be confirmed in writing to Carolyn to avoid billing for full days.

Thank you for your understanding
Mel Bishop
