Student Absences

PublishingPageContent

All student absences must be reported to the school.  If your child is going to be absent from school, please notify the school of your child's absence prior to 9:00am each day.  We are required, by the Department of Education, to implement a same day absence notification to parents/carers.

Details must include student name, parent/carer name, Extended Form Group  and reason for absence.

If no notification has been received by the school by this time, the student will be marked with an 'unexplained absence'.  

  • Parents/carers will be notified via our message service  
  • Parents/carers are required to confirm the student absence by replying to the text message
  • Only then will the absence information will be updated

Parents and carers may use either of the following methods to report a student absence:

  • Student absence line: 5498 0160
  • Student absence text message: 0451 562 283
  • QParents App - please only use QParents for full day absences
  • Email our Attendance Officer - studentabsences@cabooltureshs.eq.edu.au
  • Student absentee line via the main school number, 5498 0111 (option 2)  
  • Should you be unable to leave a message, please contact the main school number 5498 0111 to speak with a member of staff​

Please note that students leaving early and arriving late contribute to total student absences.  Absences of more than ten days in a year can seriously affect academic progress and the certification that students will receive from the Queensland Studies Authority (QSA).
