GOROKE <strong>P12</strong> COLLEGE<br />
Principal’s Report Continued<br />
Last week, 2 of our Advance Police<br />
Youth Corps students attended the Police Remembrance<br />
Day in Horsham to assist with the<br />
ceremony. Thank you to Sean Maybery and<br />
Sam Crick for giving some of their holiday time<br />
to such a worthy cause.<br />
Attached to this week’s newsletter is<br />
a Departmental brochure about attendance<br />
at school. We occasionally have cause for<br />
concern about the number of absences<br />
some students accumulate and would like<br />
to make all parents aware of the benefits of<br />
regular attendance at school. Over a year,<br />
school takes up only 40 weeks. To miss 10<br />
days or more is starting to impact on your<br />
child’s learning. Please contact the school if<br />
your child is going to be absent for an extended<br />
time and we can organise for some<br />
work to be sent home for your child.<br />
It is fourth term and time to put<br />
broad brims on again in the school<br />
yard. Please be aware that if your child<br />
does not wear a broad brimmed hat at<br />
school, they will be limited to undercover<br />
areas only for recess and lunchtime.<br />
Students have been excellent to<br />
date at ensuring that they remain sunsafe.<br />
