Family holidays and travel outside of vacation periods are counted as an absence for the student and for statistical purposes.
Parents may apply for leave using the Application for Extended Leave —Travel form. Travel documentation, such as travel itinerary or e-ticket, needs to be attached to the Application.
If the Principal approves the Application, a "Certificate of Extended Leave —Travel" will be issued and the absence recorded as 'leave'. If the application is not approved the absence will be recorded as 'unjustified leave'. The certificate may be produced when requested by police or other authorised attendance officer.
Extended Leave application form should be completed and submitted at least two weeks prior to start date of leave.
