"I started at TLC in Year 1 and throughout my time here, I have always been treated like a person, not a number. Now in Year 12, I believe the school has given me the ability to have the skills and knowledge needed to begin the next stage of my life".
Thank you for considering The Lakes College for your child.
The Learner Journey at The Lakes College is truly about growing young people of character. A Lakes Learner feels a sense of belonging and has agency, enabling them to navigate challenges. They desire always to make a difference and work in partnership with others knowing that collective wisdom and shared responsibility are powerful tools in their becoming. Lakes Learners experience a gradual release of responsibility as they journey through our College, with student voice a significant factor. A Lakes Learner relies on the values of Faith, Hope, Love, Courage, Community and Justice to sustain them.
