The Old Strathconians’ Association
Old Strathconians’ Association members can now access a range of resources and information through our Community Portal, “Blackboard”. This replaces the “Potentiality” service that existed earlier. If you would like access to Blackboard please email your name and contact details or send them by mail to the Community Relations Office, and a username, password and instruction manual will be sent to you. Your username and contact details remain confidential unless you express a willingness for these to be listed.
If you have changed your address or personal details please contact Elisabeth Chalmers in the Community Relations Office at cro@strathcona.vic.edu.au, by phone on (03) 8779 7500 or by mail to:
