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).

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.

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.
