1. Absences remaining unexplained at the end of each week
2. Learners with 5 or more full days unjustified absence in a term
3. If action has been taken for learners unjustifiably absent for 5 or more full days

• Irregular absence: students with more than 80% and up to 90% attendance (missing 1-2 days a fortnight)
• Moderate absence: students with more than 70% and up to 80% attendance (missing two to three days a fortnight)
• Chronic absence: attendance of less than 70% (missing three or more days a fortnight)

Please help us to help you and your tamariki by recording your absence in EDGE or alternatively by phoning the office to advise us of your child's absence.  If a child is consistently marked absent without explanation or we are unable to contact you on the numbers given to the school your child will be marked as Truant.

Check out these alarming statistics below.  Many Schools across Aotearoa New Zealand are working hard to address low attendance rates in their communities.  Our year to date attendance rate is 86.2%.  This means on average each day we have 14 students absent.  The Ministry of Education is aiming for attendance rates to be above 90%.
