Thank you for considering The Lakes College for your child.

The Learner Journey at The Lakes College is truly about growing young people of character. A Lakes Learner feels a sense of belonging and has agency, enabling them to navigate challenges. They desire always to make a difference and work in partnership with others knowing that collective wisdom and shared responsibility are powerful tools in their becoming. Lakes Learners experience a gradual release of responsibility as they journey through our College, with student voice a significant factor. A Lakes Learner relies on the values of Faith, Hope, Love, Courage, Community and Justice to sustain them.


"I started at TLC in Year 1 and throughout my time here, I have always been treated like a person, not a number. Now in Year 12, I believe the school has given me the ability to have the skills and knowledge needed to begin the next stage of my life".
