Absence
If a child is to be absent for any reason could you please notify the school before 9am via phone 325 2440 or email: office@broadfield.school.nz This is very important as it avoids the time consuming task of having to ring if a child does not turn up for school. It also helps the staff to maintain accurate attendance records, which is a legal requirement. Parents occasionally ask to have their children absent from school for various reasons. While teachers are not legally entitled to authorise this type of absence, it is accepted that there are times when these requests are necessary. Parents are asked to put this in writing to the Principal if it is more than three days.
