With the return of overseas travel this is a timely reminder about procedures for requesting leave.

All requests for leave (other than for sickness or an appointment), need to be sent to the Principal.

Please be aware that the school cannot say no to leave, but most is deemed to be unjustified (under the Ministry of Education guidelines) and work is not set, nor can NCEA assessments be rescheduled as a result, so please think really carefully about timing.

If you just want to discuss the idea in general, send an email asking specified questions, with no dates and Julia will get back to you personally to clarify things.

If the email comes with dates and details, it will be taken as an official request for leave and you will get the formal email response, which is sent to caregivers.
