The Graduate habits of Perseverance is firstly shown in attendance and completion of set work. All students are expected to attend all their programmed lessons and activities.
Parents / caregivers can support us in this by ensuring all absences from school are minimal and are explained by a phone call to the school on the morning of the absence before 10:30am, followed up with a note to the home-group teacher in the student’s Pathway Planner (diary) and/or a medical certificate. Planned absences should be communicated to the home- group teacher in advance.
Unexplained absences or lateness will result in attendance at an after-school homework session or a detention.
Attendance is monitored through the school’s DayMap program. The school sends an automatic SMS text message to parents/ caregivers if the students is absent without explanation.
School hours at Woodville High School are as follows 8.40 am - 3.10 pm, except for Wednesday when students finish at 2.15 pm.
