Principal's News

Dear SMCM Community, Wominjeka!

Last night we welcomed the families of our 90 2025 prep children for our Prep Parent Information Evening. Thank you to our families and staff for engaging with each other in such a warm and welcoming way. We look forward to continuing to get to know you and your children as we continue our ‘Pathway to Prep’ Program with our prep play dates next week.

2025 Planning

Any families, with children not in Year 6, who will not be returning to SMCM next year are asked to advise via email as soon as possible to allow us to offer enrolment places to families on our waiting list.

In the coming weeks staff will begin drafting the 2025 Class Lists. If you have a request for your child’s class placement based on wellbeing or academic grounds please email these to me by Friday 1st November. Requests will be considered in line with staff recommendations, however can not be guaranteed.

Congratulations to our students who participated in yesterday's Regional Athletics Competition. Congratulations to Lana (Reimagin Homegroup) who placed first in the 80m Hurdles for her age group and to Angel (Gates Homegroup) who placed second in the 100 and 200m race for her age group. All of of our students should feel very proud to have reached this level of competition!

Our thoughts and prayers are with Aneta, Aleksander, Leona (Einstein Homegroup) and Konstantin (Scientists Homegroup) on the passing of Aneta's mother in Croatia this week.
