Simply, download the Qkr app from the App Store or Google Play and create an account. Parents and carers can place orders for multiple students, up to two weeks in advance and settle the balance in one simple online payment.

Workshops for Parents
Lost Property
Please ensure all school clothes, books and personal property are clearly labelled with the student’s name. Many items are not returned to their rightful owners because they are not labelled correctly or clearly.
School Shoes
Cancer Awareness
Uniform
Wearing the correct uniform demonstrates pride in oneself and the college. I ask that parents support this by ensuring students wear the correct uniform to school each day.
In this term, students are expected to wear the winter uniform. All students are expected to wear O’Connor's College blazers to and from school.
Correct sport uniform must also be worn when it is required for PE and only worn to school on days nominated for this. College track pants are available at the Uniform Shop. Track pants with other logo's are unacceptable.
Thank you for your support.
