Late Arrivals
If your child is late to class, they will need to report to the school Administration Office for a late slip before joining their class for the day.
Early Departure from School
If you need to take your child from school during school hours, for any reason, you are requested to report to the school Administration Office and sign your child out.
Extended Absence or Leaving HPS
If your child is going to be away from school for an extended period of time (or leaving the school permanently), written notification using the Student Leave Notice is required to be filled out and given to the Administration Office or emailed to Highgate.PS@education.wa.edu.au. This is a Department of Education requirement and will be forwarded to the Principal for approval.
