School Photos

Arthur Reed Photos will be visiting the College next Tuesday and Wednesday (May 16th and 17th) to take the 2023 School Photographs. They will be at the Junior School on the Tuesday for class, family and individual photographs and at the Senior Campus on Wednesday where cross campus family photographs will be taken at 1.00pm. Our Year 6 students will have their class photograph taken at the Senior Campus at 9.00 am on the Wednesday. All Junior School students are required to be in full winter uniform. There is no need to return any forms or money to the school. Unique image codes will be issued to all students on/after photo day so families can register online to view images when they become available in the Arthur Reed Photos webshop. Registration is simple, just follow the three simple steps on your child’s personalised flyer once you receive it and remember to add the codes for all your children attending this school. Even if you registered last year, it’s important that you do again this year using your child’s 2023 image code to link their images for the current year with your contact details. When images are ready to view and in the webshop, all parents who have registered will be notified by SMS and email. Once registered, please wait for notification that 2023 images are online to view before making your purchase.
