NAIDOC Week - Casual Clothes Day

As NAIDOC Week falls during the school holidays this year, St Anne's College will recognise this important event during Week 2 next term. A casual clothes day will be held on Thursday 31 July to raise funds for Opening the Doors Foundation. Students are asked to bring a donation on the day and our F.I.R.E Carriers will collect this during Pastoral Group meetings.

Students may choose to wear the following options:

1. Aboriginal Flag colours - red, black and yellow.

2. Torres Strait Islander colours - white, green, blue and black

3. Indigenous prints or clothes associated to clubs etc. - Rumbalara top, Indigenous print on a scarf, socks with flag, etc.

ICAS registrations close this month

Students are invited to register for ICAS - an online academic competition that gives students the opportunity to challenge their higher order thinking and problem-solving skills in English, Mathematics, Science, Writing, Spelling Bee, and Digital Technologies.

Registration for all subject areas closes on Monday 28 July at 11:59pm.

ICAS assessments will take place throughout August. Click on the link below for further information and how to register:

Please be advised, there will be a dress-up day to celebrate the Foundation students being at school for 100 days on Wednesday 6 August. 

 

Students are encouraged to dress up with the theme of 100 which could include dressing up as a 100-year-old or whatever imaginative ideas you have!

Term 3 - Breaktime Clubs & Activities

 

Breakfast Club

Breakfast Club will be available to all students on Mondays from 8:30am – 8:50am. Students can access a toasty from the Community Lounge 2 windows (same area as canteen orders). Breakfast Club recognises many children and young people face challenges that prevent them from starting their day with breakfast and it is designed to ensure every student has the opportunity to enjoy breakfast in the morning. 

2025 Public Holidays and Student Free Days

 

Following the implementation of the Catholic Education Multi-Enterprise Agreement 2022, the number of student free days will increase from 12 to 14 in 2025. 

 

Under the policy, primary schools are allowed nine student free days and secondary schools and P-12 settings are allowed 14 days. This is in line with the CES Ltd Policies and Procedures.
