Community & Communications
Compass
The school is constantly working to ensure that parents/carers are aware of the events occurring within the school and receive information that is relevant to the educational and personal needs of their child.
Our communication channels are Compass, Newsletters and Communication Books.
It is important that all parents/carers are logged into Compass so our school can communicate effectively with you. If you have any questions regarding Compass, or are having difficulty in logging-on, please ring Karen Jordan at our school on 94673972. The Compass log-on can be found at https://concordsch-vic.compass.education or through the ‘Compass Parent Portal’ link on our website.

Soccer Round Robin

I am delighted to report that our A grade team finished 3rd and our B grade team finished 2nd.
