Late arrival

Please note that any students who arrive late to College, or return from an appointment, must report to Student Services for a ‘Late Note’ before proceeding to class.

Early departure

If your child needs to depart early and you will be personally collecting them from College, please ring through your advice so we can arrange that your child be at reception ready for you to collect. You will be required to sign the green Leaving Early Book.

If you are not personally collecting your child, please notify the College, preferably in the form of a note or by phone. Students need to report to the office before leaving where they will receive a leave pass and be required to sign the Leaving Early Book.

Due to the shortness of the lunch break students are not permitted to go home for lunch or to leave College grounds
