End of Year Program

As 2025 draws to a close it is important that students and parents are aware of expectations for students in the final weeks of the year. It is expected that all Year 7 - 9 students are in attendance until the last student day on Thursday 18 December.

Commencing from Tuesday 9th December, all Year 7 - 9 students will be involved in an End of Year Program, running until Thursday 18 December.

All students will engage in a range of curriculum based activities supported by KLAs, and the sub school teams.

Across the program, each year level will have the opportunity to engage in one offsite day at the Queen Victoria Market. An alternative program will run onsite for students unable to attend the offsite day.

On Wednesday 17 December all students will be involved in the end of year celebration picnic.

If you have any questions please contact either Nadia Devlin or Loren Clarke.

It's in the Bag Donation Drive

This year, Eltham High School will be participating in the "It's in the Bag" donation drive. An initiative of Share the Dignity, It's in the Bag provides essential items to women and girls in need - those who are escaping domestic violence or experiencing homelessness.

The Student Voice and Leadership Team are asking for donations of these essential items. This includes period products, shampoo, conditioner, soap/body wash, deodorant, toothbrushes and toothpaste. All products must be new and unopened. You can also donate additional items such as scrunchies, lip balms, puzzle books, etc - something to make the bag special! We are also asking for bags to pack the items into. These can be lightly used and be tote bags, backpacks or handbags.

There will be a collection box located at the General Office for your donations. We will collect donations until the end of Week 5 (November, 8), after which time we will pack the bags and drop them at our local Bunnings collection point.

We look forward to receiving your donations!
