Notification of Absence

Sue Martin —

Please ensure that you notify the school of your child's absence.

  • As we expect higher than usual numbers of students to not attend, you must let us know before 9.00am each day if they will not be at school. Please contact us with your child's name and reason for absence e.g. at-home learning, sick
  • We prefer that you contact us digitally - either via email: office@sherwoodprimary.school.nz rather than e-mailing your child's teacher as teachers don't often get chance to access their e-mails during the day.

or by text: 021-0259-7501

  • If you are unable to do this you can still leave a voicemail message on the school number, however, this is very slow for staff to check so we appreciate you using the alternatives above if at all possible.

Thank you for your co-operation in this matter.
