Welcome to Term 2 at South Kalgoorlie Primary School. 

A reminder to all parents that attendance at school is a priority at all times.  All parents need to be aware that:-

§         going to school is a legal requirement;

§         every day at school matters;

§         children need to attend school regularly so they can take advantage of ALL the educational opportunities  available;

§         school enables children to build on their knowledge and skills each day, each week and each year;

§         consistently poor school attendance and lateness to class can affect children’s educational progress;

§         patterns of punctuality and regular school attendance are developed at an early age;

§         good attitudes toward attendance that are well established will help prevent problems as children progress to secondary school; and

§         school helps children build confidence in areas such as communication, teamwork, organisation and social skills, and children who miss school may find it difficult to keep up friendships in the class.

While family time is very valuable, it is important to plan family holidays for school holidays.  Holidays during the school year reduces the amount of time available for learning and is detrimental to your children’s education.

Remember attendance at school should be a priority for everyone!
