2020: welcome everyone to an exciting year at the BK campus

Following are some of the important things you need to be reminded of:

(1) school times

On certain days students in the DP (Years 11 & 12) may have a Period 8 class, commencing at 3.15pm and finishing at 4pm. 

(2) absences

Absences (including late arrivals and early departures) can be advised by parents in one of three ways:

o     direct Compass entry via the parent portal

o     phoning the Absence Line 9817 6135

o     emailing judy.o'donnell@preshil.vic.edu.au

(3) signing in/out through the office

Students who arrive after their first class begins or leave before their last class finishes need to sign in/out through the office. 

It is preferable not to make external appointments for your child during the school day; however, if this is unavoidable, the School requires parental permission allowing students in Years 7-10 to sign themselves out. This can be done by direct Compass entry via the parent portal, or by emailing judy.o'donnell@preshil.vic.edu.au 

(4) school photo day 

Photos for the whole school will take place on Monday 24 February, commencing at 9am.

There will not be a 'catch up' photo day this year so it is important that your child attends on this day.

Individual student photos will automatically generate a student ID card; these are Public Transport Victoria (PTV) approved at no cost.  

(5) lunch orders

CLASSROOM CUISINE

Our online lunch provider creates and delivers (to the front office) healthy and affordable school lunches. Available through the week, except Tuesdays, you can order online up until 8.30am on the day the lunch is required. A TWO COURSE lunch costs between $8.25 - $10.20 and a THREE COURSE lunch costs between $9.95 - $11.90.

Reminder: For students coming into Year 7 from Arlington and who are already registered with this online lunch service, parents will need to alter the delivery location to "Secondary" to avoid confusion.

For more information, menus and details about how to order, click here to visit their website. Ordering commences on Monday 3 February and their website will be open from midnight this Friday.
