Head of Campus
Quiz night postponed
We are disappointed to let you know that the Quiz Night set for tomorrow (Thursday 27 May) has been postponed, given a return to tighter COVID-19 restrictions.
All the planning and preparation that has taken place will not go to waste, and a new date will be proposed once restrictions have been eased.
Winter solstice
Fingers crossed, the longest night of the year (21 June) will hopefully be celebrated by the whole School on Thursday 17 June at the Primary campus, Arlington.
The Winter Solstice celebration is a magical night when families and friends gather together to enjoy music by our many talented musicians, delicious food and a glass of mulled wine surrounded by fire light. The highlight of the evening is of course the lantern parade at dusk.
Preshil’s annual Winter Solstice celebration is a memorable evening of merriment and beauty and we do hope you will join us. It is events like this that build a sense of community which underpins the life of our School.
Thursday 17 June from 3.30pm to 6pm
at Arlington (395 Barkers Road, Kew)
Until further notice, let's hope that the universe aligns so that this event can proceed.
Student ID cards
All students at the Secondary School have now received their student ID card. These are to be used at the Compass Kiosk (located in the Blackhall Reception area) when arriving late/leaving early.
Students in Years 7 - 10 start with Home Group at 8.50am and finish the day at 3.15pm; DP students start at 9am, finish at 3.15pm but can often have a P8 which runs until 4pm.
Students are expected to attend every school day and be punctual for all classes, programs, commitments and organised activities, unless they have a valid reason to be absent.
