  • Monitor your child’s learning progress as their assessments are marked by teachers
  • Access your child’s academic reports
  • Resolve your child’s absences
  • Manage Pastoral Care activities for your child
  • Access payments and tours through a secure portal page
  • View the School calendar
  • Connect to Explain SCAS and the SCAS Express bulletin


SEQTA Engage Parent Portal


TASS Parent Lounge

Logging In

Access to the 'TASS Parent Lounge' Portal login page is via SEQTA Engage. 

You will need to log in using the username and password that was assigned to you. For security reasons, please change your password when you log in for the first time by clicking on the Change Password link on the Parent Details drop-down menu.

Username: Your username is your Parent Code/Account Number. It is a 5 digit code beginning with 1, such as 10001.

If you are not sure of your parent code and have access to one of your bills, your parent code number is your account number on the top right-hand side of the Account Statement. If you do not have access to your bill, you will need to come into the School Office with identification in order to retrieve your username.

If you need any assistance with accessing the Parent Portal, please email us.

Frequently Asked Questions

All Secondary School students are expected to be familiar with the Examinations Code of Conduct distributed prior to major examination periods.

Initially, a welcome email will be sent from the School to parents/caregivers which allows them to set up a SEQTA Engage account. You will be asked to set up and confirm a personal password and proceed to log in.

Those who have already set up a login can reach the login page for St Columba Anglican School by simply clicking on the orange Engage icon above or typing in the web address engage.scas.nsw.edu.au. Alternatively, you can access the portal via a mobile app.

Parents will have seven days to log in after receiving the welcome email. After this expiration time, parents will need to contact the School to re-provision access.

We are here to help. If you need further information or assistance, please contact the School.

Simply click on the ‘forgot my password’ option on the SEQTA Engage login page. If you wish to change your password, once logged in, go to the Settings option.

Helpful tips and videos were created to show parents how to navigate the SEQTA Engage portal and use some of its functions. You can find them below.

SEQTA Engage is a comprehensive learning management system that integrates attendance tracking, pastoral care, and timetabling.

The TASS Parent Lounge is a secure platform that facilitates payments, excursion acceptance, Parent-Teacher interview bookings, and updates to your personal details.

Both platforms can be accessed securely through the SEQTA Engage site or app.

TASS Parent Lounge will still be used for payments, excursions, booking Parent-Teacher interviews and updating details. For security reasons, your username and password for the Parent Lounge will be separate from your login details for SEQTA Engage. Password management best practices suggest making login details different for every platform, and we encourage using a unique password and username for SEQTA Engage. Both Parent Lounge and SEQTA Engage have a process for forgotten passwords that can be accessed from each login. If you have forgotten your username or need help logging in to either of these platforms, please contact us.
