PRINCIPALS REPORT
ATTENDANCE RATE
There is an interesting pattern with our attendance rate at John Therry, with Friday's having a much lower attendance rate compared to every other day. I would encourage students to ensure they do not get into habits of taking the occasional day off, unless genuinely needed, as these habits can develop and then impact their education.
MONDAY to THURSDAY Attendance - 93%
FRIDAY Attendance - 86%
| Overall School Attendance - Up to Term 1 Week 9 | |
| Year Level | Average Overall Attendance Rate |
| Year 7 | 94% |
| Year 8 | 90% |
| Year 9 | 89% |
| Year 10 | 88% |
| Year 11 | 90% |
| Year 12 | 89% |
Students with attendance over 90% 61%
Encouaragingly - 11% of students have an attendance rate of above 99%.
You can check your child's attendance rate in the compass app.
DRIVING SAFELY IN AND AROUND THE SCHOOL
A reminder of the importance of being safe and patient in and around the school. We have had some reports of dangerous driving and behaviour, that puts the safety of others at risk. Student safety should be our priority and I request all to be mindful when driving around the school.
Top Tip -
Traffic is cleared by 3:25pm - if you are not in a rush - I recommend a slightly later pick up that will be far less stressful.
