Personal Presentation
It is wonderful to see the majority of our students so beautifully presented in their summer uniforms. Unfortunately, a few students are not wearing the correct socks. A reminder that socks are available from Café 135. Some students may need to purchase new uniforms as they have outgrown them and will need to visit the Uniform Shop.
The Personal Presentation Policy has been updated and will apply from the commencement of 2021. The following amendments need to be considered:
HAIR: Number 1 haircuts are not permitted. Lines, patterns and tracks are not permitted. Contrasting lengths should be blended.
OTHER: Eyelash enhancements and eyebrow tinting are not permitted.

2021 Booklists
This year the College will partner with Campion Education for the servicing of the Booklist/Resource list for students. The 2021 Booklist is in the final stages of the development and will be made available to parents once completed sometime over the coming week.
Final Day for Year 11 Students
Year 11 students completed their academic year today with a Farewell Assembly, an end-of-year Mass and meeting time to tie up loose ends from the year and plan for the start of 2021. The Year 11 students received a Statement of Results that indicates their year-long grades, however they will also receive a formal end-of-year report in the coming weeks. Some important pending dates for Year 11 students to be mindful of are:
- Appeals to the Statement of Results must be lodged at Student Services by Wednesday, 25 November.
- Order forms with sizing and names for Leavers’ Jackets are due by Friday, 27 November. Payments must be finalised before Friday, 12 February, 2021.

We wish all of our Year 11 students a Happy and Holy Christmas and relaxing holiday break.
