Liability for the Loss, Damage or Theft of Personal Property
Parents and students are advised that Lyneham High School staff will take all reasonable steps to keep personal property safe. However, Lyneham High School does not provide insurance cover to automatically compensate for the loss, damage or theft of bicycles or any other personal property and nor will they be legally liable for their loss.
Parents and students are advised:
- to avoid bringing valuable property to school
- to take steps to insure all valuable items for loss, theft or damage
- to use a good quality chain or bar lock to secure bicycles within the bike compound when left at school
- that valuable items are brought to school at the personal risk of the owner and that schools decline any responsibility for the damage, loss or theft of students’ personal property
- to report any suspicious activity to school staff
Lost Property
Items of lost property are taken to the Student Youth Workers' office. The school will endeavour to return labelled items to students. At the end of each term, uncollected uniform items are placed in the second hand clothing pool, and other clothing items are donated to local charities.
The school encourages students who have lost valuables (such as phones) to make several attempts to locate the item. At a minimum, they should check classrooms, staff rooms, the front office and the lost property pool.
Lockers
Lockers are available for hire at a cost of $20.00 per year. Lockers are allocated at the beginning of each year once payment has been received by the front office.
Lockers must be emptied at the end of each year and locks must be returned to the front office.
Leaving Lyneham High
Parents/carers of students who are leaving Lyneham High School should contact the school, preferably via email, prior to the date of their departure advising their last day and the name of the new school. We will then guide you through the process.

The canteen is run externally by Woden Community Services. For online ordering (and their current menu) using the FlexiSchools app, please refer to this image.
