School Transport Assistance Scheme (STAS)

Families must reapply for STAS if any of the following apply:

• New families who have not previously applied for STAS.
• Year 6 students transitioning to Year 7. Year 6 students are removed from the Translink system the day after school finishes for the year.
• Students changing schools for the following school year.
• Families changing address before the start of the new school year.

Important: Families with students attending P–12 colleges must also reapply when their child transitions from Year 6 to Year 7.

Families who are already approved for STAS and whose circumstances have not changed in any of the ways listed above do not need to reapply. Their approval will automatically roll over to the new school year.

Reminder: Student Drop-Off and Pick-Up Arrangements

The car park for the businesses opposite the College has become increasingly congested due to students being dropped off, picked up, and congregating in this area. This space must not be used as a school drop-off or pick-up location and students should not gather there before or after school.

These car parks are private business spaces and are required for their customers. Using these areas creates congestion, impacts local businesses, and raises safety concerns for students and motorists.

Parents and carers are asked to please make alternative arrangements with their child. Students should use the College Stop-Drop-Go zone or arrange to meet in a safe, approved location on a nearby side street.

Thank you for your support in helping us maintain safe and respectful practices for our students, families and surrounding community.

What's New in MyCE?

We are pleased to advise that NAPLAN and Attendance features are now available to all schools in MyCE.

These new features give families greater visibility of their child's learning and attendance information through the MyCE app and online portal. 

Parents and carers can now access their child's NAPLAN results and view Year-to-Date (YTD) attendance information, helping to strengthen engagement and support student wellbeing.
