College APP

Our iPhone and Android App is from the App store and Google Play store as a free download via the following links:

This app is designed to allow The Lakes College parents and carers secure access to information about events, bus timetables, photos and daily activities at the College. All College communication is uploaded to the app on a regular basis. For privacy the app is password protected, login is via your parent portal username and password that will be sent to you from our Primary or Secondary office.

Diaries, calendars, timetables and locker distribution

Secondary School

Lockers and Timetables – Locker distribution will be emailed to students.

Students are allocated to lockers based on their House group rather than the year group.

Student Timetables are available online via SEQTA Engage and Student Learn.

Student Diaries are distributed in the first week of Term 1 (or their first day if commencing later in the year).

Bell Times

In our Primary School, class begins at 8:30am and then finishes at 3:00pm.

Our Secondary School has a delayed start time on a Thursday and Friday morning, therefore Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday is 8:30am - 3:10pm, and Thursday and Friday is 9:00am - 3:10pm.

Communication

We know how much communication can be sent from schools so we do our best not to overwhelm families. Every Friday we will send a Communication Day email that outlines any communication that is year level related. Other communication that is specific to your child's class or House or subject will be sent directly to you.

Please make sure your contact details are correct via Parent Lounge.
