Code Red Days at St Joseph’s College
A Code Red Day is the highest level of fire danger rating in Victoria and is based on
information supplied by the Bureau of Meteorology and other environmental factors. These declarations can be made for either the whole state or specific Total Fire Ban Districts.
As a school on the ‘Bushfire at Risk Registry’ please be aware that once notified of a Code Red day in our district, the Catholic Education Office will be advising us to close. The operation of school buses will also cease on Code Red days. This decision when made will be communicated to families at the earliest opportunity.
Compass App Upgrade
From 2 November, the Compass app will receive its biggest upgrade yet, shaped by feedback from parents, students and staff.
Do I need to do anything?
No. The upgrade arrives as a normal app update, so there’s nothing new to download. If your app doesn’t update automatically, update it from the App Store or Google Play. You may be asked to sign in again with your usual Compass details.
What’s new?
An improved absence form, easier conference bookings, widgets for your phone’s home and lock screen, light and dark modes, and Apple Pay on iPhone for some payments. Students will also find timetable and feed widgets handy.
