Celebrating our students' achievements in 2024

We are thrilled to announce that our annual Presentation Evening, celebrating the remarkable achievements of our students, will be held on:

Wednesday 18 December at The Besen Centre in Burwood. 

 

This special event will honor students receiving awards across various categories, including the Learning Growth Award for exemplary progress, Academic Excellence Subject Awards for top performers, and recognitions from our co-curricular pillars in Sport, Performing Arts, and Music. 

Additionally, we will acknowledge outstanding leadership, prestigious awards earned throughout the year, and student accomplishments in the Duke of Edinburgh program and VCE subjects. 

Parents and students are encouraged to keep an eye out for a Compass event invitation to join us in this celebration of success. 

We look forward to seeing you there!

Electronic device use at Brentwood Canteen

We would like to thank you for your continued support with the Personal Mobile Devices Policy. We have noticed students trying to utilise their phones as a payment method at the canteen and ask that families look to make other arrangements. 

Mobile phones are not to be used at the canteen as they are not allowed to be in use between the school hours of 8.45am and 3.05pm. 

Students can make payment via an EFTPOS card or cash.

Thank you for your cooperation.
