Winter Uniform

Term 2 is the commencement of Winter uniform for this year. Please ensure that students’ uniform is worn correctly. Please remember that the winter parka is only to be worn over the top of the College blazer for extra warmth. The College uniform requirements can be found on My Aitken at https://myaitken.fireflycloud.net.au/college-uniform

Publication of Photos

The College reproduces images of students in newsletters, the yearbook (The Windmill), marketing material, local newspapers, on My Aitken, on its website, its social media and through educational third parties such as Independent Schools Victoria. These help promote activities and achievements to the school and wider community. In any media directed to the public, students' full names will not be published and an individual student will not be singularly featured without parental permission. As part of your enrolment you agree to allow Aitken College to reproduce images that may include your child for these purposes.

If you do not wish for photographs that include your child to appear externally (website, newspapers, social media, etc.), please contact the Registrar to request a Photo Consent Opt-out form.

Woolworths Earn and Learn

We are excited to be taking part in the 2019 Woolworths Earn & Learn program.  During the previous campaign, we were able to purchase some great resources with the points we earned, thanks to you. From 1 May until 25 June 2019, for every $10 you spend you will receive a sticker. Once you fill the special sticker sheet you can bring it to school and drop it into the Woolworths collection box at Reception. The more points we earn, the more we can redeem from a choice of over 10,000 educational resources including Mathematics and English resources, Art & Crafts materials and much more.
