Rules and policies

Rules and policies are in place to make sure your child remains safe and well at school.

Visit the NSW Department of Education’s policy library for all current operational policies.

Our school uses the department's School Community Charter to ensure all of our communication is collaborative and respectful.

Attendance and absences

Students must attend school regularly so they can achieve their educational best and increase their career and life options.

In NSW, all children from the age of 6 are legally required to attend school or be registered for home schooling through the NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA). All students must complete Year 10, or its equivalent and remain in school, employment or training until they turn 17.

For more information about compulsory school attendance, visit:

Late Arrivals/Early Leavers

All students who arrive late for school (after 8:55am) must be accompanied to the office by their parent or caregiver to obtain a 'late slip' which is then given to the class teacher.

Parents or caregivers wishing to collect their child before normal finishing time (3pm) must collect an 'early slip' pass from the office to give to the child's teacher.

School frameworks (school rules)

As well as following the department’s operational policies, we have developed frameworks for our students in line with our school’s values and commitments.

School Expectations

Our school's expectations are for our students to be safe,  kind, proud and respectful learners.
