Student Personalised Octopus Card

All students must have a school-registered Personalised Octopus Card. This is used for registering daily attendance, which is essential for health and safety. Students must swipe-in to register their arrival time on campus. If a student leaves campus during the day and then returns, they should swipe-in again upon their return. Students who leave campus during the school day MUST go to Reception for the sign-out process. Year 12 and Year 13 students may use their Exit Pass.

Students can apply at any MTR branch office for a Personalised Octopus Card. Application forms can be downloaded at this link:

Personalised Octopus Cards can be used to:

• check-out books at the Library & Learning Centre
• check-out textbooks at the IT & Resources Centre
• register daily attendance
• purchase food
• purchase resources
• pay small fees at the IT & Resources Centre

1. The card value can be topped-up at the Cafeteria.

2. Students should check at Reception if they have lost their Personalised Octopus Card to see if it has been handed in.

3. Students who have forgotten their Octopus Card and are unable to swipe-in must register their attendance with their tutor.

4. Personalised Octopus Cards must be activated at an MTR station prior to being used on campus.
