Absences

“Schools are legally required to ensure all students attend school every day, they must therefore have effective procedures in place to monitor and follow up on absences”.
​MOE Te Ora Hou Otautahi Inc.
Schools are required to identify and record learner attendance, patterns of non-attendance, and the reasons for non-attendance. Please ensure that if your child is going to be absent you contact the school office  by 8:45am on each day that student is not attending school on account of illness or other reasons.

​Contact can be made by either the RVS School App., email, phone or text message:
                Email:    office@rvs.school.nz
                Phone:  (03) 578 0626
                Text Message:  021 0852 4986

Should a pattern of absences emerge, it is the schools responsibility to follow up on this. At RVS we recognize that some pupils may have a legitimate reason for a pattern of absences and for those children a discussion with the parents/caregivers of that child should have already taken place.

Families who wish to take children out of school for holiday reasons must first seek the approval from the School Principal.
​
If you would like to discuss this issue further please feel free to speak with any of our Assistant Principals.
