SMS Notification of Student Absence

The College will forward an SMS message to the parent/guardian of any student who has not arrived by 8.50 am for Homeroom.  This system is working well with positive feedback coming from parents.  For this service to operate effectively, parents/guardians need to ensure that the correct contact details are always updated with the office.  In conjunction with this system, parents are requested to respond to the SMS message by 3 pm on the day of the absence or alternatively provide a signed note of explanation.
