Sentral

Carroll College uses Sentral as our School Management System. A School Management System connects our staff, students, and parents to every facet of our college including:  

· Staying up to date with your child’s progress and awards

· Explaining absence reasons

· Tracking your child’s attendance

· Viewing the College and Assessment calendars

· Booking parent-teacher interviews

· Viewing end of semester reports

· Viewing college daily notices

College Daily Notices are an important part of college life as they help students and parents know what is going on at the College. It is important students are reading the Daily Notices each day to ensure they do not miss out on any important notices or information regarding upcoming events.

We are confident that you will see the benefits of the Parent and Student Portal. Should you require log in details, please email Mrs Sandra Harris.

NSW SCHOOL VACCINATION PROGRAM

Each year, NSW Health works in partnership with schools to offer the vaccines recommended by the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) for adolescents as part of the school vaccination program.

In 2024, vaccines will be offered to Year 7 and Year 10 students. NSW Health will be at the College to administer the vaccinations on the following days:

· Year 10 – 14 March 2024

· Year 7 – will be held in Term 2 (date TBA)

NSW Health has changed the consent form process. Parents/carers will need to consent to their child's vaccination online through the Service NSW site - 'online consent portal'. The portal in Service NSW is now open for Carroll College.

If you have questions regarding the school immunisation program, please contact the Public Health Unit.
