Absentees

Full attendance is very important.

Students cannot achieve at school without full attendance.  We encourage parents to avoid scheduling family events during term time.

If your child is absent from school, please send a written note with them when they return to school to explain their absence.

Prior permission from the Principal is required for extended absence other than sickness or bereavement.

If you wish to email us to explain the reason your student is away from school for any time, you can email our Attendance Officer: Donna Subritzky - dsubritzky@kaitaiacollege.school.nz 

We do ask that you leave a contact phone number in the event that the Manukkura (Dean) wishes to ring you back.

​​​​​​​PLEASE NOTE:

As the school uses KAMAR for our Student Management System.
