Information on LCS opening hours:

While LCS strives to make life easier for its community, for obvious safety and liability reasons, it is not permitted to leave children unattended off campus until the entrance gate opens.
Students are admitted from 8:00 a.m. and not before.
We thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

IMPORTANT: REMINDER CAFETERIA REGISTRATION 2025/2026:

We have noticed many oversights regarding canteen registrations. To ensure everything is in order, please check your child's registration status on the EDUKA platform and send an email to accounts@condorcet.com.au for any new semester registrations.

For secondary school students awaiting the final timetable for September 1st, you will have until September 5, 2025, to make final changes to your canteen registration. After this date, no changes will be possible.

Primary

National assessments from CP to CM2

As every year, students from CP to CM2 participate in national assessments organized by the Ministry of National Education. These assessments help identify students' achievements and needs in French and mathematics. The results are a valuable tool for teachers to adapt their practices and better support each child in their learning. Families will receive individual feedback regarding their child's progress.
