Student safety is very important in the Campbell River School District. To help schools with this shared responsibility, we ask parents to notify the school when your child is going to be away or arriving late to school. 

Please call the school at 250-923-4253 extension #1 and report the absence through the attendance line or email at southgate@sd72.bc.ca indicating your child’s first and last name and the reason for the absence.  

Attendance is recorded for each block at Southgate.  Absences are reported to the school office and each morning there is a Safe Arrival protocol in place to contact you if your child has not been excused.

Extended Absences

Regular school attendance is important for continuity of instruction, classroom participation and learning outcomes. However, we recognize that parents may choose to take their child out of school for holidays, sporting events and other activities throughout the year. Teachers might be able to provide some work for students who are absent for a short term, provided sufficient preparation time is available, but parents should not expect the school to provide in depth learning support in these instances.  

If your child will be away for an extended period due to long term illness or hospitalization, the school will make alternative arrangements to continue to deliver educational programming. Please contact your child’s teacher as early as possible to inquire about materials for home study.
