Your child and school attendance

Regular attendance at school (PDF 421KB) is directly related to the success of your child, both at school and after leaving school.

Parents are required by law to send their children to school from the ages of 6 to the end of Year 10, and thereafter until they are 17 unless employment opportunities are taken up.

The NSW Department of Education has a wealth of information on the obligations of parents and carers to ensure their children attend school regularly.

Bomaderry High School is committed to ensuring that their students have the best chance of succeeding at school. For further information on the school attendance policy, contact Mrs. Cathy Russell or Mrs Kate Burrett on 02 4421 0699.
