If you are having difficulty getting your child to attend school regularly, you might like to talk to the principal.
If your child has to be absent from school for any reason, including arriving late or leaving early, please either let your your Aurora College Coordinator coordinator know or email us at auroracoll-h.school@det.nsw.edu.au or phone us on 1300 287 629 as soon as possible and within seven days.
A Certificate of Exemption must be obtained through the home school Principal if your child cannot attend for the following reasons. This may include:
If the exemption for attendance is greater than 100 days the you must seek approval from the Director. In the case where your child is granted a Certificate of Exemption we require a copy via the Aurora College Coordinator and will consider and support the student to maintain their attendance in Aurora classes offsite, if it is in the student’s best interests and appropriate supervision is able to be provided.
A Certificate of Extended Leave must be obtained through their home school Principal if you wish to seek permission for such leave as travel. This verification should be communicated to Aurora College staff via the Aurora College Coordinator.
