Attendance Expectations

Albany Senior High School is committed to addressing the National Attendance expectations – these details were shared earlier this year with whānau by Claire Amos, Principal, through our “Acing Attendance” strategy.

General Absence Processes

To notify late arrival, early departure, or all day absence for your young person, please use the Parent Portal – this is available through a browser on your mobile device or laptop/desktop computer.

Please endeavour to notify before 9.30am if possible, so the attendance can be recorded accurately for your young person.

Instructions to report an absence.

You will need to indicate the reason for absence in the portal.

If you need your ASHS Portal (KAMAR) Parent/Caregiver login credentials, please contact jcoenen@ashs.school.nz

 

Mobile Device

For ease of access, you make like to create a webclip/shortcut on your phone to the new responsive portal – you can find instructions for this here.

 

Special Leave

For long term leave (more than 3 days) a Special Leave Form must be printed, completed and submitted via reception for the Principal’s signature – prior notification of two weeks is requested. It will need to be printed as the rangitahi will need to make contact with each of their kaiako BEFORE the application is submitted.
