Parent Communication

Communication from the College directly for families is sent via email and shared on Sentral for Parents (Parent Portal). All parents should ensure they download the Sentral for Parents app to their mobile device to ensure they are kept informed of all College activities, news and alerts. Sentral for Parents (Parent Portal) is a great tool that enables families to receive not only news and information from the College but also notify absentees, book Learning Discussions, grant permissions for College Activities and access Academic Report Cards. Student timetables, past absences and previous report cards can be viewed by both Parents and Students via Sentral for Parents and Sentral for Students.  The link to Sentral for Parent (Parent Portal) is available on the website under Parent Information -> Web Links. 

The College also utilises SMS for immediate contact with parents. You may receive an SMS message if your child is absent and unexplained from school or if we need to contact all parents in case of emergency. Please ensure your mobile phone details are up to date with the College Office or via the Parent Portal.

Class Teachers in the Early Years utilise Class Dojo for specific class related messages and reminders.  All teachers utilise email to relay messages and reminders for their classes.  If you would like to contact your class teachers directly one of the best ways is via their College email.

The College newsletter released each fortnight is a great source of information about the happenings in the College.  The newsletter is published each week and is available via our College website, a link is also shared via Facebook, shared on Sentral for Parents (Parent Portal) and Students, and sent via email to those who subscribe via the link on our website.

Members of our school community are also invited to register to receive our our Southern Cross Conneciton Newsletter and are encouraged to register via the link on our College Newsletter page.
