CHROMEBOOKS PROGRAM - IT SUPPORT

Please remind your children that if they are experiencing a problem with their Chromebook they need to contact our IT Support team on help@mckinnonsc.vic.edu.au or call 8520 9000 and ask for the IT Office.  Alternatively, students onsite can visit the IT Office in person (located adjacent to the General Office).  

 

One of the benefits of our Chromebook program is ensuring all students have a device that is under warranty - this means that if our IT team cannot diagnose/fix the problem on the spot, we will organise the repairs for you. This is designed to save families time. Please note that accidental damage is not covered by the warranty, hence the need to look after the device carefully. If repairs are required, a loan Chromebook will be made available. If you notice a problem or have a question, please don’t wait - contact our team so we can resolve the issue as soon as possible and minimise any disruption to student learning. 

ENHANCED LEARNING IN MATHS AND SCIENCE (ELMS) ENTRANCE TESTS

After a significant delay due to the COVID lockdown, ELMS Entrance tests will now take place Term 4 Week 4 (week commencing Monday 25 October). All registered families have now been notified via email of the upcoming events. 

 

We ask that any registered families that have not received this information, to carefully check their inbox (including SPAM and Trash folders) and contact Peter Quinn (qui@mckinnonsc.vic.edu.au) immediately if they are unable to locate this information.

UNIFORM

As we approach the return of students to onsite learning we want to make clear the uniform requirements for all students in order to help families prepare and purchase new items from our supplier, Bob Stewart, if necessary.

 

Full uniform requirements for the college can be found here.

 

From Tuesday 26 October until Friday 5 November, students at all year levels can choose to wear either; the full winter uniform, full summer uniform or full PE uniform.

 

From Monday 8 November all students must be in full summer uniform ONLY. Please be reminded students will be expected to wear PE uniform when required as part of the timetable.

 

Please be aware that Bob Stewart is now stocking the McKinnon branded square cut, short sleeve shirts that are part of the Summer Uniform.
