BYOD Device Purchase
7 October, 2024
Dear Parents/Guardians,
Action Required for Your Child's BYDO Device
We are writing to inform you that, following a recent review by the ICT Team held at the end of Term Three, your child's device is currently not registered on the school's domain. This could be due to either of the following reasons:
- Your child's device did not meet the minimum required specifications for our BYDO program.
- Their device was not available in class during the ICT Team's check.
Next Steps:
1. Device Recheck:
If your child’s device was not checked by the ICT team, or if you believe the device meets the minimum required specifications (as outlined in the attached BYOD letter), your child must bring their device to the ICT team for a recheck. This will ensure the device is compliant and can be properly registered on our network for 2025.
2. Purchase of a New Device:
If your child’s device does not meet the required specifications, it will need to be replaced. Please refer to the attached BYOD letter for details on the minimum device specifications. All new devices must be purchased
through the College portal to ensure compatibility with our systems and network security. The portal link, along with more detailed specifications, can be found by clicking on the "previous letter" button below.
For your convenience, you can follow this link to the College Portal to view and purchase the required device: https://lighthouse.orderportal.com.au
Important Dates
To avoid any disruption to your child’s learning, we recommend completing any necessary purchases or checks as soon as possible.
Please note: any devices purchased after 31 October 2024 may not be ready for the start of the 2025 academic year.
If you have any questions regarding your child’s device, please contact the ICT Team
(helpdesk@lighthouse.vic.edu.au).
For any queries about the BYOD program, you can reach out to the E-Learning Coordinator at (eLearning@lighthouse.vic.edu.au).
We appreciate your cooperation in ensuring that all students have devices that support their learning and are properly integrated into our network.
