School Uniform Update
We are currently waiting on a number of uniform items due to supplier delays as a result of production line COVID delays. Senior school blazers, Junior school boy's grey shorts, school hats, and rugby tops are currently on backorder. We will advise parents as soon as stock arrives.
Lunch Order System
From Friday 11th of February students and staff will be able to order their lunch every Friday. Ordering and payment for lunches will be via the Quickcliq system which is also used for school uniform purchases. If you haven’t already registered for Quickcliq, you can do so by clicking on the following link https://www.quickcliq.com.au/parents. Quickcliq can also be accessed from Compass under the drop-down 'star menu'. Orders will need to be placed before 9:00 am on Friday. Food will be supplied by the Trackside Takeaway and will be delivered to the College in time for lunch.

Travel Conveyance Allowance
The travel Conveyance Allowance is Government funding available to school families to subside the cost of travel to School by both bus and car. The eligibility criteria for the Conveyance Allowance are set by the Department of Education, including; you must be traveling further than 4.8km by the most practical route to get to and from school and not travel past a bus route.
If circumstances remain unchanged from year to year, there is no need to reapply, however, if the following changes have occurred it will be necessary for you to complete a new application in order to qualify for ongoing Conveyance Allowance in 2022:
- A change from car travel to bus travel, or vice versa
- Your family has moved and changed address
- You have a child who has commenced at King’s College in 2022 who was not listed on your previous application
- New families to King’s College are encouraged to complete a form and submit their applications if they have not already done so.
Payment of the funding is made directly to the College at the end of each term and is applied as a credit to families' school fee accounts. If you have any queries or to obtain a copy of the necessary form(s) please email your request to accounts@kings.vic.edu.au by the end of February 2022.
