We warmly welcome all families back to the 2026 school year and extend a special welcome to the new families joining our Coaching Parade Campus community. It has been wonderful to see students return with such positive energy, and we are pleased to report that students have made a strong start to the year, settling well into routines and secondary school life.

We are excited to welcome students back under the care of our dedicated secondary leadership team. Our leaders, along with our staff are committed to supporting students both academically and personally, and we look forward to working closely with families throughout the year.

Uniform Expectations
As we begin the year, we would like to remind families of our uniform expectations to ensure consistency and pride across the campus.
Students are expected to wear the academic uniform daily, unless they have Physical Education or a scheduled sporting event. Academic uniform includes the blue school shirt, navy pants, shorts or skirt, navy socks and black leather school shoes. This can be accompanied by the blazer, puffer jacket or the knit jumper for daily wear.
Year 7 students have PE on Mondays, so the sports uniform is only to be worn on Mondays.
Year 8 and 9 students have PE on Tuesdays, so the sports uniform is only to be worn on Tuesdays.
Unnatural hair colours are not permitted
Black leather school shoes or all black runners must be worn with the academic uniform
Ties and blazers must be worn by all students on excursions or formal events
Year Level Coordinators and Assistant Principals will be contacting families where students are not meeting uniform expectations. We appreciate your support in reinforcing these expectations at home. For more information regarding the Secondary uniform, please see our policy below:
Attendance and Punctuality
Classes commence at 8:45am sharp, and students arriving after this time will be marked late. School gates open at 8:30am to give students adequate time to be ready for school. Developing strong habits around attendance and punctuality is essential, and we appreciate families supporting students to arrive on time and ready to learn each day.
Student Leadership Opportunities
Year 7-9 Student Leadership applications have now been launched for 2026. We encourage all students who are interested in contributing to school life and developing their leadership skills to apply. Applications close on Thursday 13 February.
We look forward to a positive and productive year ahead and thank families for their support in what has been an extremely successful start to the academic year.
Kind regards,
Year 7-9 Leadership Team
