From the Associate Principal

Kelsey Smith

Associate Principal

It has been great to have our Year 11's and North West Tour staff back on campus this week. From all reports, the students enjoyed their time in the warm north of our state. Thank you to the staff and students who helped the tour run smoothly. 

 

College Photos

College photos will take place on Monday, 8 August 2022, week 4. Students need to start the day dressed in the Formal College uniform: white shirt, blazer, tie, black pants, black belt and polished black leather shoes (no sports shoes). Jumpers will need to be removed for the photos. 

 

Students are to gather outside the Rec Centre at 8:00am Monday morning. There will be time allocated for students to change into sports and farm uniforms if students are required for those photos (please see below for requirements). At the conclusion of school photos, students can change into the uniform they will need for the remainder of the day. 

 

If you haven't returned your photo order envelope please make sure you do so by 3pm today (Friday). 

 

This weekend would be an ideal opportunity for students to visit the hairdresser if their current style does not meet College guidelines.
