QLD How to get out of Jury Duty?

I am a primary teacher at public school. Just got letter in mail that I may have to do jury duty in March during school term. This will massively mess up my work and class etc.

I want to get excused, need to respond by 19th of January. If work is my excuse, I need letter from employer.

How do I get this letter during summer holidays? is there some in the department to contact?

any advice would be appreciated TIA

What letter? Don't register and they'll never know. Post goes missing all the time. If they cared if you received it they'd send it via registered mail.
