Acting Principal
Mr Daniel Lapolla
EREA Soccer Trip:
Congratulations to our Year 7/8 and 9/10 Teams for making the finals in their respective competitions. Unfortunately, we didn’t have luck on our side with the Year 7/8 boys going down in a penalty shoot-out and our Year 9/10 narrowly missing out 2 -1.
A great effort and experience all round. I would like to commend our Director of Sport Mr Moschogianis for his thorough planning and organisation and to our dedicated coaching staff for your time and expertise in Ms Wigley, Mr Desmarchelier, Mr Tskiris and Mr Mahoney.
Goal Setting & Parent Student Teacher Conferences:
As has been communicated throughout this term, this coming Friday will mark our first goal setting day.
Goal setting provides students with the opportunity for students to reflect on their learning, identify strengths, and set clear, personal goals for improvement. Supported by teachers and families, students develop a stronger sense of ownership, responsibility, and motivation for their learning journey.
Parent -Student‑Teacher Conferences scheduled for the 4th of May create a shared space for open and constructive dialogue. These meetings allow teachers, parents, and students to work together to discuss progress, celebrate achievements, and identify next steps.
By engaging students directly in these conversations, the process reinforces self‑reflection and promotes meaningful learning conversations at home and school.
Together, goal setting and PST Conferences support a genuine partnership with families, align expectations, and ensure students are supported consistently.
House Polos:
New house polo tops will be available early in Term 2, providing students with a fresh opportunity to proudly represent their House. These polos are designed to strengthen house identity, build connection, and foster positive house spirit across the College.
Students will be permitted to wear these polos with their PE uniform. They will be used in conjunction with the current PE polo. We look forward to seeing the colours flood our school grounds as the house complete for vital house points.
