2024 Captains

We are delighted to introduce our 2024 School Captains - Zoe Haydon and Charley Reynolds along with our Year 12 Captains - Indii Peacock, Olivia Bradshaw and Jet James and Year 11 Captains - Jed Tatnell and Taylah Mae Gundry.

VCE Students and Cars

It is very exciting to see that some of our Year 12 students have already acquired their driver licence and are driving themselves to school. 

There are just a few things to keep in mind when students get their car and licence this year; 

• PARKING is available in the STADIUM car park
• The car park is out of bounds during school hours. Students are not permitted to go to their cars during the day
• NO DRIVER STUDENT MAY TAKE OUT ANOTHER STUDENT IN THEIR CAR DURING SCHOOL HOURS
• Students may obtain their parents’ permission to be driven to and from school in another student’s car.  A written note from both students’ parents must be given to the VCE Coordinators before driving another student or siblings
• Students must inform the VCE Coordinators of their licence plate number and car make and colour

Uniform Requirements

As per the school uniform policy, students are not to wear any facial piercings. This includes clear piercings.

Students also need to ensure that they wear white socks without logos and black polishable school shoes.

All Senior School uniform requirements are available through LOWES Lilydale.

VCE Attendance

It is a requirement  at Lilydale High School that students attend all timetabled classes so that teaching and learning opportunities can be maximised. 

Attendance includes Home Group each morning, even if the student does not have class, Periods 1 or 2. 

VCE SAC Redemption

Students will not be granted SAC redemption unless they have a medical certificate, or it is a school-approved absence.

If there are extenuating circumstances, please let us know and we will make a decision based on the VCAA guidelines.

Funky Socks Friday 

Funky Socks Friday is back this year! All Year 12 students are invited to wear ‘funky socks’ each Friday for a gold coin donation.

The Year 12 cohort will donate the proceeds to a charity of their choice. 

School Captain's Report

VCE students, WELCOME to your final year/s at high school.  We wish you all the best of luck in achieving your goals whether they be academic or not. 

This year we (your Captains) plan on working with the teachers and students to ensure everyone has the most enjoyable experience in a period, often filled with stress. Hopefully you have all made a comfortable transition back into your school routines and are feeling positive about the journey ahead - you will all do amazing! 

The Year 12s were welcomed back with a lovely morning tea organised by Senior School, which was a great opportunity for everyone to reconnect after the summer holidays. We enjoyed a variety of food and drinks whilst the coordinators were able to take some photos and capture some of the first memories of our Year 12 journey. 

We wish you all the best of luck with your final year/s and don’t forget your captains are always here to listen to your feedback and ideas. Let's make this year memorable!
