2 | LAURISTON GIRLS’ SCHOOL SENIOR COLLEGE HANDBOOK AND GUIDELINES
A school for life.
Dear Parents,
We have decided to permanently relocate the Lauriston VCE/IB Examinations offsite. This change will commence this year and your daughter will sit her practice and final exams at the Hotel Como in South Yarra.
This decision was made so the school can control the conditions of the exam room to ensure privacy and quiet. There is ongoing construction work along Huntingtower Road as well as the school’s own preparatory work due to start later in the year.
The added traffic and noise in the area around the Armadale campus as a result of this construction work has the potential to disrupt students in an exam setting.
We want to allow all of our students the best environment possible to complete their examinations and sitting examinations in Armadale with construction works in progress would not allow them that opportunity.
The School has produced a handbook for parents and students to provide information around the relocation to the Como Hotel; this contains information on how to get to Hotel Como, key landmarks in the area, floorplans of the Hotel and the Official VCE, IB examination timetable.
I would like to reassure you that all of our students will be well supported in the lead-up and during the examinations. Should you have any questions or concerns regarding the end of year examinations please feel free to contact me on 9864 7555 or watsonti@lauriston.vic.edu.au.
Kind regards,
Tim Watson Acting Deputy Principal - Learning and Innovation

HOW TO GET THERETrain South Yarra Train Station is located on Toorak Road, approximately 400 metres from Hotel Como. South Yarra Station services the Frankston, Pakenham, Cranbourne and Sandringham lines.
Students travelling from other train lines should catch a train to Richmond Station and then change to one of the above services to get to South Yarra.
TramThe route 58 (Toorak to West Coburg) and 78 (Balaclava via Prahran to North Richmond) trams stop at the intersection of Toorak Road and Chapel Street, the closest stops to Hotel Como. The route 58 tram runs along Toorak Road and the route 78 tram runs along Chapel Street. Students are reminded to have a valid Myki card whilst travelling on trams or trains.
Parking for carsThe nearest secure car parking is available at the Como Centre Car Park. Entry to this facility is via Chapel Street or River Street. There is more secure parking located on Chapel Street near the Jam Factory Shopping Centre.
