To ensure we can continue to celebrate and share student achievements across our various communication channels, Media Permissions must be completed annually by all families.
Media permissions are used by the College when photographs, video recordings, audio recordings, student work, or other identifying material may be published or shared. These permissions expire each year and will automatically clear on the designated rollover date.
Action Required:
Families are asked to review and update their student's Media Permissions via Parent Lounge by 22 January 2027.
If permissions are not updated by this date, the College will be unable to use your child's image, video, audio, or other approved material in the selected communication channels until consent has been renewed.
Media Permission Categories
When completing Media Permissions, families can select whether they consent to the use of their child's image, video, audio, student work or other identifying material in the following areas:
1. School-Based Publications
- Weekly newsletter distributed digitally to parents, teachers and staff.
- Annual Magazine distributed to the College community and retained as an archival publication.
- Digital noticeboards around the College.
- Old Boys' publications.
2. Marketing Collateral
- Presentation folders and stationery.
- Brochures, pamphlets, cards and handbooks.
- Signage and promotional displays.
3. Social Media
- College social media platforms, including but not limited to Facebook.
4. College Website
- St Brendan's College website: www.stbrendans.qld.edu.au
5. YouTube
- St Brendan's College YouTube channel, including livestreamed events and video content.
6. Catholic Education Community
The College regularly participates in activities and events with other schools, colleges and organisations within the Catholic education community. By selecting Yes, families acknowledge that approved material from these occasions may be used internally and within the broader Catholic community.
7. Third Parties
As part of the College curriculum and co-curricular programs, students may participate in activities involving external organisations, industry partners, media outlets or businesses. While the College takes reasonable steps to work with reputable organisations, it may not always have control over material captured, published or distributed by third parties.
Deadline: Friday, 22 January 2027.
Location: Parent Lounge.
Important: Media Permissions will reset annually and must be renewed each year.
