E Newsletter<br />

<strong>Copperfield</strong> <strong>College</strong> has a commitment to improving the environment we live in. With this in mind we are phasing out printing our<br />

newsletters and introducing electronic distribution. As from2013 we will be emailing newsletters directly to families and friends of<br />

the <strong>College</strong>. Printed copies will only be available from the General Office at each campus. This initiative will also reduce our paper<br />

and postage costs.<br />

The newsletters will be available on the <strong>Copperfield</strong> <strong>College</strong> Website from the following link:<br />

http://www.copperfieldcollege.vic.edu.au/News--Events/eNewsletters/<br />

Please return the attached slip providing us with your email address so we can ensure our records are up to date and every family has<br />

the opportunity to receive important information distributed in our ‘E Newsletter.’<br />

In Victoria education is compulsory for children aged between 6 and 16. When students are enrolled, it is expected they will attend<br />

every day of each term.<br />

Parents will receive notification of any student-free days.<br />

It is crucial that students develop habits of regular attendance at an early age. This includes arriving at school, and each class, on time.<br />

Students who regularly miss days of school are at risk of missing out on learning the basic building blocks in subjects, and may<br />

experience long term difficulties with their learning.<br />

School attendance helps students develop social skills, such as friendship building, team work, communication skills and healthy selfesteem.<br />

An absence from school requires a doctor’s certificate or note of explanation that has been written and signed by a<br />

parent/guardian. The note should accompany the student on the first day they return to school after the absence. If the<br />

absence is expected to be longer than one day, please notify Lorraine on 9361 3891.
