Magill School day
A normal school day at Magill School starts with yard supervision from 8.25am. Children should not be on the school grounds before this time unless they are booked in to OSHC. Teachers are in classrooms from 8.40am with the school day commencing at 8.45am.
If students are late but arrive before 9:15am, they go straight to their class. If students arrive after 9:15am, they must report to the front office and sign in before going to class. Younger students may require a parent/caregiver to accompany them. If this step is missed, you may receive a notification that your child is absent from school.
Absenteeism SMS 0428 616 225
When students will not be attending school due to illness, family reasons, external learning/sports, parents/caregivers are requested to notify the school via our Absenteeism SMS 0428 616 225 by 9am. Please ensure you include your child’s name, classroom and brief explanation of why they are absent, e.g. illness, family reasons. This information is critical in ensuring all students are accounted for as student safety and well-being is a high priority.
Children who are away unwell for 3 days or more will be required to provide a doctors certificate.
If your child will be absent from school for 3 days or more, parents/caregivers must complete an Exemption Form (Form C) which must be approved by our Principal PRIOR to the leave dates.
Early dismissal
When a child/children need to be collected from school early, the procedure is:
Pupil Free / School Closure Days
Throughout the school year there will be several Pupil Free/School Closures determined by Magill School Governing Council.
These closure days will be advised via our school newsletters and will also be included on our Google calendar which can be found on our website.
