Have you enrolled for Prep for 2022? 

We are currently in the process of accepting new enrolments for 2022. We advise all existing families and community members who may be interested in attending our school, to submit enrolment forms as soon as possible. Unfortunately, due to Covid19 restrictions we are unable to have personal tours at our school. Please visit our Facebook page to see our virtual tour which is accessible to our families and local community. A reminder to all parents to maintain social distancing when waiting for children before and after school.

 

Attendance - Every Day Counts

If you are aware that your child will not be attending school due to illness or other circumstances, please ensure that you contact either office to ensure our attendance records are accurate.  Ways of communicating absences include:

  • Calling the office;
  • Sending an SMS on 0427 226 537;
  • Placing a future Absence Request through  the Parent SENTRAL Portal.

As required by the Department of Education, all schools must notify parents informing that their child is absent.  Please inform the office of absences before 10:00 am each morning. 

Sentral Parent Portal Access

The Sentral Parent Portal is the primary method for home-school communications at The Lakes.

 

We are excited to say that most families have access to the Parent Portal. The portal allows students and parents\carers to keep up to date with important information and communication. This includes student academic reports, parent-teacher interview bookings and permission for students to attend camps, sport and excursions.

 

The Student and Parent Portal can be accessed at school, from home and from mobile devices. To assist families without internet facilities at home, The Lakes has installed mobile technology devices into both the Primary and Secondary offices for families to access.

 

If you are experiencing any issues with Sentral, please contact either office to assist you.
