Absences

If your child is absent from school please notify the front office by phone before 9:30am.  An email and/or SMS is sent to parents/carers of Middle and Senior school where there is an unexplained absence. The phone number this message will be sent from is +61419 206978, please do not reply directly to this number. Unexplained absences may affect any Centrelink payments, secondary bursary payments or receipt of a Year 10 Certificate.

Allergy Friendly School

In conjunction with our KSS P&C, Kingsford Smith School is allergy friendly, providing protection for children who have a severe allergic reaction to nut products. Our canteen menu aims to be nut free and parents are asked to provide nut free food for their child's lunchbox.

Assessment and Reporting

Students receive a written report at the end of each semester and parents/carers may be asked to come to the school to discuss this with the teachers. Children in Kindergarten participate in the Performance Indicators in Primary Schools (PIPS) assessment at the beginning and end of the year. Year 3, Year 5, Year 7 and Year 9 students participate in the National Assessment Program Literacy and Numeracy (NAPLAN). Reports for PIPS and NAPLAN are sent home late in term three.
