For safety reasons, the school must be contacted if your child will be absent for any reason.

If your child is going to be absent, the easiest way to let us know is to complete the absentee form below or under the 'report an absentee' button at the top of the website.

If your child has an appointment or is leaving the school during the day, please let the office or your child’s teacher know. When picking up your child for their appointment please go to the office before getting your child from their classroom and sign them out on the tablet.

Classroom release time (CRT) refers to the portion of a teacher's working hours that are dedicated to non-teaching tasks. Classroom release time is an essential aspect of a teacher's workload, as it allows them to effectively plan and prepare for their lessons, assess student progress, and engage in professional development activities that enhance their teaching skills and knowledge.

This entitlement will mean that your child will not have the same teacher all day every day of the school week. 

Job sharing is also a common arrangement in which two teachers share the responsibilities of a single full-time teaching position. Each teacher typically works a set number of days per week, with some overlap for communication and collaboration. Job sharing has several benefits for both teachers and schools. For example, it allows teachers to achieve a better work-life balance, as they can split the workload and responsibilities of a full-time teaching position. Additionally, job sharing can provide schools with increased flexibility in staffing, as two part-time teachers may be able to offer a wider range of skills and experiences than a single full-time teacher. 

Should you have any questions or queries around CRT or a job share within our school, please contact the Principal.
