Student Absentee Line

If your child is absent from school, please call and notify the College. You will receive a Truancy Call if you do not notify the school of the absence.

The number to call is (02) 8853 8215. Please leave a message with the following details:

·      Student’s full name

·      The reason for absence

·      Your full name

This line is open 24 hours 7 days a week for your convenience.

Please do not dial the school’s number and select Reception or Student Services – call the direct number above.

Thank you.

Using the Gilroy Truancy Call system!

The Truancy Call system is automated to send out a call or text message when your child is marked as absent.

You can respond to these messages in a number of ways:

·      Sending a text message in reply to the automated text message

·      Ringing the school directly

·      Following the prompts from the automated call to leave a voicemail.

Please note:

YOU CANNOT SEND A TEXT MESSAGE TO A PREVIOUS DAY’S ABSENTEE TEXT. The message comes through to the computer according to the DATE stamp and won’t be received. If you wish to text message for an absence, you must first wait for the message to be delivered to you to reply.

If you have any queries, please contact the College for more information.

Thank you.
