Hope you are enjoying the new school app – here below is a gentle reminder about it and about procedures:-
The app
If you forget your password, or have difficulties with login please contact ict@capebyronsteiner.nsw.edu.au
We ask that you log-in to the School app and check your address and contact information are current, you can also add or change any emergency contacts and medical details. Please note we must have an emergency contact for your child other than parents that would be able to pick up your child from school if we were unable to contact you. Please add your child/s swimming ability in the medical conditions section.
Attendance
If your child will be away, please report the absence via the School App. (Details here) If we do not receive notification prior, you will receive a message that your child was absent from Roll Call. Please then explain this absence via the School App.
Please be advised that if you are collecting your child early for any reason, you must come to Reception to report yourself in and to sign your student out. If you can let us know by email that you intend collecting your student early, as soon as you are sure of it yourself, that would help us greatly in organising with their teacher to have them sent to Reception for collection.
While it is courteous to let the class teacher/Guardians know your child will be absent, please do not assume that telling them is the same as having informed the school. Teachers will assume you have already logged absentee information via our App.
For absences’ longer than three days, please fill in the Application for Extended Leave – Travel and email your application to the Co-Heads of School’s Assistant, Penny – pa@capebyronsteiner.nsw.edu.au
Similarly, for any questions regarding required leave, please contact Penny as above for further assistance.
If you have not provided the school via the school app with notification of absence by 9.30 am you will be advised of their absence by text after Class Roll Call has been entered. It is school policy to keep all records up to date, so please respond via our School App as to the reason the student is away. If children arrive late (after 9 am) they must sign in at reception before attending class. This applies to students leaving early too.
