Absences
Please email your child's absence to absence@berkley.school.nz and include the following details:

Reason for Absence:

Please note you must provide details of where you can be contacted on the day of this absence. Alternatively you can telephone the school answer phone service 856 5956 before 8.30am to leave a message.

For all absences a note for the class teacher is required when the student returns to school. In the interests of student safety our attendance officer will send a text message to your cell phone using the Early Notification system. If there is no response staff will phone parents or alternatively get support from School Attendance Services (SASH), to assist with any unexplained absence.

Lateness
Students who arrive at school after 8.35am must report to the main office to sign the late register. Here they will receive a late card to hand to their teacher. Students who need to leave school early (for any reason) must report to the main office to sign out of school and MUST be collected by a parent.
