There are many occasions during the school year where The Lakes South Morang College staff photograph, film or record students participating in school activities or events, for example: classroom activities, sports events, concerts, excursions, camps etc. We do this for many reasons including to celebrate student participation and achievement, showcase learning programs, document a student ’ s learning journey/camps/excursions/sports events, communicate with our parents/carers and school community in newsletters and on social media, College publications, etc. There may also be occasions where we take images to support student plans or to fulfil legal obligations, all the while compiling with the Privacy and Data Protection Act 2014 (Vic). The Photographing, Filming and Recording Students Consent Form is provided by The Lakes South Morang College at enrolment. Recent Departmental changes to this policy mean that this now only has to be completed once during your child ’ s educational journey at The Lakes. As a component of our transition to Compass, all families across the College will be sent a message on Compass or contacted by a member of staff in regards to Permission to Publish for your child provided at enrolment. If at any time parents/carers wish to give or withdraw their consent, they can by contacting the College or completing the form below.
