Pick Up & Drop Off

If you are taking your son to and from school, we encourage you to arrange an appropriate location away from the immediate surrounding streets to alleviate any traffic congestion. 

Please do not use the Campus car parks or Mentone RSL for this purpose. Thank you for your cooperation. 

Absentees, Late Arrivals & Appointments

Students are expected to arrive by 8.40am and to stay on College property until they are dismissed at 3.15pm. Parent notification is required when your son is arriving late, leaving early, absent or has planned absences. Parents can notify the College prior to 9am via PAM.  

Should students arrive after 8.40am, they must sign in at Student Services. Parents will receive a SMS if their child is absent from his morning Homeroom or Tutor Group.

Early Dismissal Days

In accordance with policies of Catholic Education Melbourne, St Bede’s College is committed to providing sufficient time and resources so that our teachers can continue to learn and provide the best possible learning environment for each student.

This year, our teachers will continue to dedicate fortnightly sessions to collaborative professional learning. This will occur on Day 8 of the College timetable, which falls every second Wednesday. On this day, students will be dismissed at 2pm. The Resource Centre will remain open for students to complete private study.  

College Canteen 

At both Campuses, our College Canteen offers a great range of fresh, seasonal and convenient food at very good value.  See the 2024 Canteen Menu here. 

From freshly made soups, sandwiches and wraps, toasted croissants, classic meat pies and sausage rolls, to nachos or yoghurt and granola bowls, there’s lots to choose from. 

Thank you to our wonderful Canteen team and volunteers for their friendly service.
