Special Education
School Wide Positive Behaviour Support
Wow! Term 2 is already here.
Our Primary students have returned and picked up right where they left off in week one, continuing their focus from last term: “I line up before class and wait quietly.”
Our Secondary students have also revisited their focus: “I respect the personal space of others.”
In Weeks 2, 3, and 4, all our Inclusive Education students will be focusing on: “I strive for success and excellence.”
Congratulations to all of our stars for demonstrating these expectations so well.
ANZAC Wreath
On Friday 24 April, Olivia and Harrison, our Special Education Defence students, proudly presented their wreath at our ANZAC assembly. The wreath was group activity crafted by our Red, Yellow and Blue rooms.
Earth Day
To celebrate Earth Day, students from the Red and Blue rooms came together to create a “Tree in a Cup.” They followed a visual recipe with great focus and enthusiasm, demonstrating strong teamwork throughout the activity. It was wonderful to see their excellent turn-taking skills in action. A fun and meaningful way to learn about caring for our environment!
Changing Gears - Getting your Ls Interactive Program
🚗 Get Your L’s: Our Community is Hitting the Road Again!
There’s nothing quite like the feeling of independence that comes with getting your Learner’s Permit. We’ve seen it time and again here at Seymour College—that look of pure pride when a student (or a local parent!) holds up their L-plates for the first time.
After the incredible success of our last session—where we saw eleven of our own students and community members like Amanda, a busy local mum, smash their goals—we are so excited to bring the Changing Gears program back this May.
What’s it all about?
We know that the official road rules can feel like a different language sometimes. That’s why we bring in Nikki, a trainer who has a gift for making things click. Whether it’s through group games, videos, or even standing on one leg to demonstrate how to balance through a turn, Nikki makes sure no one gets left behind.
As Nikki says, "The program isn't just about the road code; it's about showing people how to tackle obstacles and achieve success."
Why this works:
- A supportive vibe: You’ll be working alongside familiar faces like our Vice Principal Kristie Luckman and our wonderful Teacher’s Aide, Kylie.
- High success rate: We have a 15-year history of helping people pass who thought they never could.
- Community first: This isn't just for students. If you’re a local resident who has struggled to get your permit in the past, we want you here.
The Details:
- When: Monday 25 May – Thursday 28 May 2026
- Time: 10:00 am – 2:00 pm (We keep it intensive but finish early enough for the school run!)
- Where: Right here at Seymour College

Let’s get those L-plates moving!

Time: 10:00am – 2:00pm
