Parent Portal

Parent Portal is a secure online platform used to share student information between you and your child’s teachers.

Using the Parent Portal on your mobile phone, tablet or computer, you can:

  • notify us if your child is sick or explain an absence
  • book parent-teacher interviews
  • receive academic reports
  • receive our school newsletter
  • receive messages from your child’s teachers
  • make payments
  • access the school calendar and your child’s student timetable.

One of the many benefits of the Parent Portal is that it will be used by all ACT public schools from preschool through to year 12, so there will be no need to use a different system as children change schools during their public-school journey. If you have children at nearby schools you will not need to sign up to the system twice. You will be able to easily add a student to your account once their school has access to the Parent Portal.

If you already have a Parent Portal account, use this Parent Portal access link to start using the great features. You can’t access Parent Portal directly through the ACT Digital Account website, you need to use the link above. When you are logged into Parent Portal, we recommend saving the browser as a favourite or to the homepage on your mobile phone for quick access in the future. The website can only be viewed using a web browser on your computer, mobile phone or tablet. An app is not available at this time.

If you still need to register, you will need an access key and a Parent Portal registration link via email to link your existing account to your child’s records. If you haven’t received this, please contact the school’s front office team for assistance.

If you have any questions, please contact the front office on info@arandaps.act.edu.au

Principal's Welcome

Principal -Phil GrayPhil Gray at Tidbinbilla

We aim to provide young people with a wide variety of engaging learning experiences during their time with us. I would like to think that every child who attends Aranda School will find something that motivates them and stimulates their curiosity. Our children’s wellbeing and safety are of the utmost importance to our staff and the wider Aranda community.

We expect Aranda children to care for others, embrace our differences and strive to do their best. Good manners, resilience and compassion are all aspects of our graduate profile.

Our teaching team are an outstanding group of professionals who are committed to an evidence based approach to student growth. We focus on the needs of each individual and we measure progress on a regular basis. Our teachers visit each other’s classrooms, share best practice and regularly participate in professional development sessions. Great teachers who are supported by positive parents bring the best out of children.

I am proud to be part of the great team at Aranda and share with you the exciting educational programs and activities that operate at our school. I  invite you to find out more about our school through this website.
