Homestay families urgently needed for our International Student Program at the College

The International Student Program Team at North Geelong Secondary College are looking for Homestay families to accommodate our incoming students for Term 3 and beyond. If you would like to be a part of this exciting Program, please see the attached information and contact either Mr Paul Dawson or Mrs Tonia Tigani. This is an amazing opportunity to assist students from different countries and experience not only their culture, but also to introduce them to the Australian customs. We look forward to hearing from families in our wonderful College community expressing interest in this opportunity.

Second Hand Uniforms

The Second Hand School Specialists shop in Hamlyn Heights has been selling NGSC uniforms for the last nine years. The shop is located approximately 5 minutes, by car, from NGSC.

They currently have approximately 500 pairs of trousers and 300 pairs of NGSC shorts in stock; and around 800 shirts. Being close to our school, they receive NGSC uniforms all the time. Families can leave a list of what they need and they will text them as soon as the items are available. They sell on consignment at approximately half the cost of new prices, providing the item is in very good condition.
