Exiting the College 

We are very fortunate to have the assistance of Crossing Supervisors on both Como Parade West and Commercial Road.  

It is imperative that students are utilising the areas provided, are alert when crossing roads and are obeying the direction of the supervisors at all times and that parents/carers are not encouraging students to illegally cross the road to be collected.

School Photos

Our official College photographs were taken by Elite School Photography on Friday 29 January and Monday 1 February.

Please find attached instructions on how to purchase your daughter’s photos.

The due date for all orders is Friday 19 February

School Vaccinations

The Secondary School Vaccine Program offers free vaccines to Year 7 and 10 students. These vaccines provide protection against:

• Diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis (whooping cough) – one dose for a Year 7 student
• Human Papillomavirus (HPV) – two doses for Year 7 students
• Meningococcal A,C,W,Y – one dose for Year 10 students.

Parents/carers of Year 7 and 10 students should look out for the vaccine consent card booklet coming home from school with your child. You will need to read the information and complete and return the card whether or not your child is being vaccinated at the College. 

These booklets will be handed out prior to your daughter’s vaccination date(s):

Year 7: Friday 19 February and Friday 15 September

Year 10: Wednesday 31 March

Any current Year 8 and Year 11 students who missed the Vaccinations in 2020 are still able to receive them.  If this applies to your daughter, can you please email me at vince.camera@kilbreda.vic.edu.au and I will discuss the process/dates.
