CHRISTMAS MARKET AND CONCERT FAST APPROACHING!

Our Christmas Market and Concert will be held on Tuesday 9 December at the following times:

• Christmas Market | 5pm - 5.30pm
• Christmas Concert | 5.30-6.30pm

Remember to pack a picnic blanket or chair to sit on, snacks for your family and, of course, money to purchase goodies at the market. Items will be priced from $1.

Please note, this event is strictly alcohol-free, drug-free and smoke-free. We would also like to remind families, photos /videos SHOULD NOT be taken of any of the performances due to student media restrictions. Staff members will take photos and video on the night, and approved photos will later be shared with the community. 

All students and children attending must be supervised by a family member. Students are welcome to invite extended family and special people in their lives to join us in celebrating in the lead-up to Christmas.

We have had some questions about what they should wear for the concert. Students are asked to wear Christmas colours (red and green) - this could be a Christmas t-shirt or a plain green/red one. They can also wear a Christmas accessory, like a Santa hat, a Christmas headband, some tinsel etc. We are kindly asking students not to dress up in a full costume.

Why buy new when you can save money and support sustainability?

The Year 11 VM students are launching our upcoming Second-Hand Uniform Sale, where you can find great-quality, pre-loved school uniforms at budget-friendly prices. It’s the perfect way to prepare for the school year while helping reduce waste and supporting a meaningful cause.

Proceeds: Every purchase makes a difference. All proceeds from the sale will go toward a fund that we will utilise in the future to support a great cause. 

Don’t forget to check out this money-saving opportunity. Cash payment is preferred. 

Breakfast Club will be available to all students on Mondays from 8:30am – 8:50am. Students can access a toasty from the Community Lounge 2 windows (same area as canteen orders). Breakfast Club recognises many children and young people face challenges that prevent them from starting their day with breakfast and it is designed to ensure every student has the opportunity to enjoy breakfast in the morning.
