Congratulations Manny (Year 9)
The Debaters Association of Victoria (DAV) sends personal invitations to a selection of high-performing debaters each year to join the Victorian Schools Team (VST) who will represent the State at the National Schools Debating Championships; some even go on to represent Australia at the World Championships.
Based on his outstanding debating efforts this year, Manny has been so invited by DAV to try out for the VST later this month/early December. This is quite an achievement.
Manny has put in a lot of hard work which has paid off. He is a skilled debater and we wish him all the best.
2022 instrumental music program
If your child would like private music lessons next year, please read the instrumental music program's terms and conditions and complete and return a contract to the office by Friday 3 December.
Whether your child will be returning to the program in 2022 - or would like to take up tuition for the first time - you will need to complete a new contract.Second-hand textbook trading
The School is conscious of the need to provide an efficient process for families to be able to buy and sell second-hand textbooks and other student resources (calculators, stationery, musical equipment) and is registered with Sustainable School Shop.
Simply log onto the website www.sustainableschoolshop.com.au and register, nominating Preshil; list your items for sale, as well as your wanted ads for those items you are looking to buy; the School’s booklists (once available) are loaded into the system to make listing ads easy; the system matches the ads of buyers with sellers and notifies the buyer via email; buyers contact sellers and arrange where and when to trade (most trading will occur with other parents from the School); the system is simple and easy to use and parents are well supported via Sustainable School Shop’s telephone (0438 743 444) and email help lines.
Lost property
As we head towards the end of the year, please remind your child to look in the lost property box if they have mislaid an article of clothing or other personal items. Anything unclaimed will be donated to charity over the holidays.
