Routines & Policy

Timetable

We operate an 8 period day and a five day cycle. Each period is approximately 38 minutes and specialist subjects enjoy double periods. A copy of the secondary timetable can be downloaded from our downloads page.

Canteen

The canteen operates five days a week for lunch. A selection of healthy hot and cold food and drinks is available.

College Houses

The Secondary Campus operates three sport houses. Students compete in intra-school sporting competitions in their houses. The houses provide us with an opportunity to build school spirit and also help to network students with others outside of their cohort group. Our houses are:

• BATES Gold
• HASKELL Green
• PRESCOTT Red

Lockers

Each student will be allocated a locker and key. A spare key or a master key will be held for emergencies by the Locker Supervisor. The College will not be responsible for any property lost in the locker areas. Lockers should be locked at all times.
