With only weeks to go, we have much to celebrate! We would like to acknowledge and congratulate each and every one of our students for all of the learning they have achieved this year. We commend them all for not only their academic development, but also their own personal growth as individuals. We look forward to celebrating with our students during the many upcoming events planned in the weeks to come.


Prep Breakfast
Prep students were invited to attend school bright and early in their pyjamas, to eat breakfast with their peers. The morning was fun filled with lots of chatter amongst the students as they enjoyed eating cereal, toast and juice. Thank you to all students who participated and to the Prep teachers and other staff who organised the morning and made the breakfast experience fun for all.


Year 1 Stay Late
Year 1 students were invited to stay late at the end of the school day, as part of the Brookside College camping program. Students stayed at the College from 3:10pm-6:00pm and enjoyed a healthy snack for afternoon tea, watched a magic show and participated in teacher led activities with their peers. To conclude the night, students enjoyed pizza for dinner. The students had a great time with their teachers and peers and now look forward to staying at school even longer when they have the Year 2 Sleepover next year.


Swimming Program
Students in Prep, Year 1, 3, & 5 had the opportunity to participate in a swimming program at the Caroline Springs State Swim Centre. Students participated in swimming lessons across the week with a qualified swim instructor and all seemed to enjoy their time.


Year 6 and Year 9 Graduation
Over the next two weeks, our Year 6 and Year 9 students will be celebrating an important milestone as they take part in their respective graduation ceremonies. Preparations are well underway, and we look forward to honouring this special occasion with all of our students.


Prep Transition
We have welcomed our 2026 Prep students to the College over the past few Fridays, during which they have had the opportunity to participate in the Prep Transition program. This is a very exciting time for our new students and their families and it has been nice to see so many smiling faces both at the beginning and end of each transition session.


Freeman House Celebration Day
On Monday 1 December, all Freeman House students spent the end of the day celebrating their achievement as the winning house, by earning the most house points throughout the year. The students enjoyed participating in various activities with their friends during this time. Well done Freeman House!


Year 7-9 Exams
This week, students across Year 7-9 undertook exams in the subjects of English and Math. The exam period is a great opportunity for students to showcase and highlight the learning that has taken place throughout the year, and provides students with the experience of exam taking for future schooling years. We wish all the students the very best! Thank you to Ms Rapley and Mr Taylor for organising and leading the exam process.


End of Year Concert
On Monday 10 December, our primary students will be participating in the Brookside End of Year Concert. Students have been rehearsing with their teachers during the past couple of weeks. Gates open at 4.30pm, with P-6 students performing from 5.00pm until approximately 7.00pm. We look forward to welcoming all of our community members to this event.


Enjoy your week!
