Term Dates and School Hours

School Hours and Term Dates

Supervision officially commences at 8.35am. Therefore, the school takes no responsibility for children before this time. Children are welcome to place their bags near classrooms after 8.35am, before playing out in the playground until the bell rings.

Carranballac College currently operates two timetables.  Our Primary students (Foundation – Year 6) are scheduled to the Primary Timetable and our Secondary students (Year 7 – Year 9) are scheduled to our Secondary Timetable.

Absences

If your child will be absent from school, you are required to submit an absence note through Compass by 9.30am on the morning of the absence. Alternatively, you may call the school office, ph 9395 3533. Failure to do this will result in an automated text message notifying you of your child’s absence. You will also receive a phone call from a staff member requesting an explanation for your child’s absence.

Late Arrivals and Early Departures

All students who arrive after 8.45am must report to the office to sign in. Those marked as late will require an explanation provided by a parent/carer.

If you would like to pick up your child early, please come to the office to sign them out. Students are not permitted to leave the school prior to 3.00pm without a parent/carer. You may call ahead to have your children waiting at the office for you when you arrive.
