Going to school every day is the most important part of your child’s education. We pride ourselves on the partnership we have with our families and hope that families will continue working with us to support their child’s regular attendance at school.
If your child is experiencing wellbeing or personal challenges preventing them from engaging with school each and every day, please reach out to your child’s House or Wellbeing Leader. We can work with families to support their child’s attendance and help families connect with wider organisations, too.
Parents are reminded to log all absences via PAM and to advise the College of any upcoming extended absences.
When your child misses one day per week, they miss eight full weeks of learning each year. That significantly impacts their learning and has implications for their progression.

To support students in enacting the Parade College PEERS agreement, an informative handbook titled the Habits of a Parade Learner has been created. The purpose of the handbook is to help students and families better understand the College’s PEERS agreement. It outlines how students arrive to class each day, clarifies the College’s expectations, and aligns with the values of our community.
Please find here the Respect chapter of the handbook.
