Policy and Procedure

Medication

Please be aware that no drugs, prescription or otherwise (including Panadol), are able to be administered by the college except in certain circumstances where it is necessary for a student to take medicine on a medical practitioner’s written orders during college hours. Parents are requested to notify the college in writing, provide the correct dosage for the period in question and provide a medical certificate and doctor’s instructions / prescription indicating the necessity for the drugs to be administered at college.

Mobile Phones

Student’s phones are to be stored in lockers and switched off. If students need to make a call during college hours, students are permitted to use the college phone. If someone needs to contact them during college hours, he/she may ring the office and the message will be relayed to the student concerned. Mobile phones will be confiscated and retained in safe keeping in the office for a week, if found being used or carried at school.

Students going on holidays

Holiday leave is generally discouraged during college time; however, sometimes such leave is unavoidable or necessary. As a courtesy, parents are asked to contact the Principal to discuss the proposed leave.

  • Exams to be completed upon return
  • Assignments to be submitted by due date as per normal procedures—may be electronic or in advance
  • Teachers can provide an indication of work to be covered and it is the student’s responsibility to catch up on their return 
  • It is the student’s responsibility to collect work from teachers

These are the policies and procedures adopted at St Stephen’s Catholic College. A full list of policies is available on the Catholic Education website.

  • We are honoured to be here today as we gather on the traditional land of the Muluridji people. We acknowledge and pay our respects to the elders and their families: past, present and emerging. Unique from our own Country, yet unified. With traditions that have been passed down through generations, we bring our own values, knowledge and beliefs of land and people. Together, on this land of the Muluridji people, we come to a place where we have the privilege of learning with each other and from each other to grow together to unite our people.
