Year 9 - Science 'Expression of Interest' Forms

C. Blackie

'Expression of Interest' forms for new programs in Year 10 Science for 2020 need to be returned to the school by Friday 30th August.  If students would like to talk about their options, they are asked to see their teachers or Learning Centre Leaders this week.  Replacement forms are available from the College office.

Fathers' Day Store

There will be a Fathers Day Store for secondary students this Friday before school. It will be held in the Library from 8.15 a.m. onward. This is an opportunity to purchase a Fathers' Day gift at a very reasonable price.

Doctors in Secondary Schools

Remember our doctor’s room is open every Tuesday from 10am–3pm for secondary students.  Student appointments can be made through staff at the school or by calling the Merbein Family Practice on 03 5025 2511 or students can simply drop into the rooms at recess or lunch on Tuesdays. This is a great service, not just when students are sick but for things like prescriptions, asthma and anaphylaxis plans, catch-up immunisations, mental health and any other issues facing secondary students.  Students will need to give their Medicare Card details to the GP clinic.  An easy way to do this is for the student to take a photo of the card on their phone.  Parents do not need to attend appointments with students but are very welcome to come along if the students wish.
