This year, your VCE team consists of the following teachers:

Head of VCE and Year 12                     Mr Chris Cogan

Head of Year 11                                     Mrs Cathy Drury

Year 12 Coordinator                             Miss Brooke Addison
Year 12 Coordinator                             Mr Craig Harris

Year 11 Coordinator                             Mr Tim Kogelman
Year 11 Coordinator                             Miss Laura Barbuto

We encourage all students who have any concerns or are experiencing any difficulties to come to the VCE Office and speak with the VCE Coordinators.  It is important that students are aware that assistance is always available to them and that the sooner they come and discuss their issue with a VCE Coordinator, the sooner things can be resolved.

Absence line
Parents/Guardians are asked to ring the Senior School Absence Line between 8.30am and 9.30am when a student is absent from school and advise the student name, form group and reason for absence (illness, holiday, family reasons etc).

The school should also be advised if a student is expected to be absent for more than two days.

Student Attendance

Lilydale High School believes that there is a direct correlation between attendance and achievement.  At both Year 11 and 12 we are running monthly attendance competitions. At the end of each month the form with the highest attendance rate will receive a prize. 

For all VCE students, attendance at morning form assembly is compulsory.  Students receive many important messages and copious amounts of information during form assembly, making their presence essential.  Students who have study periods during Periods 1 and 2 are still expected to be at school and in form assembly by 8.40am. 

Study Periods
VCE students are also reminded that they are not to leave the school grounds during study periods.  Study periods are to be used productively completing work, either in the study Hall or in the Library.  The only time students can leave the school grounds during study periods is if they have a double study during Periods 5 and 6, or a study period during Period 6.  When a student has a double study during Periods 5 and 6 they are able to leave, once they have signed out, at the beginning of lunch time.  When the study is Period 6 only, students are only permitted to leave the school grounds at the beginning of Period 6 and once they have signed out.  The sign out book is located outside the VCE Office.  It is imperative that students sign out prior to leaving the school grounds, so the VCE team know that they have left the school.
