What do I do if ... students

I'm late: Go to the main office (in Jackson block). The office staff will give you a late pass so that you can be admitted to class. If you are continually late the office staff will refer you to the Deputy Principal for an explanation.

I have to leave school early: The school needs to be notified in advance if this is the case. Your parent/carer must either send an email to springwood-h.school@det.nsw.edu.au  Attn: Administration OR  write a note advising of the reason for the Early Leave and the time you will be required to leave.

This note needs to be handed into the office BEFORE school and an electronic Early Leavers Pass will be generated and given to your child. You will show your class teacher this pass when leaving to ensure they know you have permission to leave at the approved time.

Youare then free to leave the school premises with this pass and do not have to come through the school office before departure.

If you return to school after an appointment, you must report to Reception to sign back in.

I miss the bus after school: At the final bell it is essential you go quickly to the bus bay if you have to catch a bus. If you miss the bus immediately report to the teacher on bus duty. If you cannot find a teacher do not attempt to make your own way home. Instead, report to the Principal or Deputy Principal and they will make alternative arrangements for you.

I feel sick: Speak to your teacher and ask them to write you a note to attend Sick Bay. Take the note to the main office in Jackson block.  Before school, at recess or at lunch you do not need a note. Students are not to make their way home without permission if sick. 

I forgot my sport money: Report to the PD/Health/PE staffroom before the end of recess. Your name will be put on a list and an alternative sport activity will be arranged for you. It is essential that all students meet their financial sports commitments so that the school can continue to provide a wide range of experiences.

I have trouble with another student: Report the problem to your classroom teacher, your Year Advisor or Ms Beechey (Girls Advisor).

I need a concession card and am over 16: All students 16 years of age and older need to collect their concession cards from the front office. For travel on weekends and public holidays and school holidays at the concession price you must carry this card. If you do not, you must pay adult fare or be fined. Remember: While you are in full-time education, you are entitled to a concession rate on all NSW public transport if you carry this card.
