Why is regular school attendance important?
Attending school everyday is important to ensure your children have the best opportunity to further their learning.
Benefits of regular school attendance:
1. Improved academic performance: Consistent attendance allows students to fully engage with the curriculum and avoid gaps in their learning. This improves their chances of academic success and achieving higher grades.
2. Enhanced understanding: Attending school regularly enables children to participate in classroom activities, discussions, and group projects. This fosters a deeper comprehension of the subject matter as students have the opportunity to ask questions, collaborate with peers, and receive immediate feedback from teachers.
3. Stronger relationships: Regular school attendance strengthens student relationships with classmates and teachers. Through consistent interaction, you can build friendships, develop effective communication skills, and establish a supportive learning environment.

2. Be organised: Pack you school bag, organise your clothes, complete homework tasks the night before.
