Parade.
Friday Parades
This year, Greenbank will be conducting parades a little differently. In the past, we have had weekly Friday parades for the whole school. The hall becomes quite crowded during whole school parades and during summer it is hot and uncomfortable. To create extra space and to target our parades
more directly to the year levels, it has been decided that we will have split parades on a fortnightly rotation - P to 2 and 3 to 6 parades.
Each term, on Fridays at 9.10am, we will have:
- Week One - Whole school parade
- Starting Week 2, then each even week of the term, Yrs 3-6 parades (Weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 10)
- Starting Week 3, then each odd week of the term, Yrs P-2 parades (Weeks 3, 5, 7, 9)
If a Year 5/6 Gala Day falls on an even week (which would mean a Yr 3-6 parade) parade will be cancelled and a notice will be on the school sign.
Parades will continue to present: weekly messages, the social skill of the fortnight, activities and learning undertaken in the school, mindfulness, celebrations and class awards.
Parent attendance is welcome.
Attendance | Absenteeism
- Schooling is compulsory in Queensland
- Children must attend school every day unless there is a reasonable excuse.
- Illness, medical and dental appointments are valid excuses for absenteeism.
- Notes are required from parents of children who are absent from school.
- Parents may contact the office in cases of extended or emergency absenteeism.

- Children are not to leave the school grounds during school hours without the permission of the Principal.
- Parents wishing to collect a child prior to 3:00pm must call at the office to sign the child out.

- After collection of the late Slip, the adult is expected to escort the child to the class teacher and present the late slip.
- Please note that students who arrive after 9:30am or are signed out before 2:30pm will accrue a half day absence.
