Getting Started

To get up and running, go through this list from start to finish. Each step is dependant on the previous one, so must be done in order.

1. Login credentials

Before your daughter arrives for her first day, an email containing detailed set up steps, including her login and a temporary passphrase will be sent to her primary carers. This usually occurs mid-January. 

If you did not receive an email, please contact the IT Helpdesk.

2. Set your College passphrase

Your temporary passphrase must be changed. You will receive a reset link in your welcome email.

It is incredibly important that you set a strong password, not only for your College account but for any and all services and systems you use.
