Happy Holidays

Please enjoy a well deserved and much needed break over the Christmas and New Year holiday period.

Our students certainly need to have a break from the rigors of the year that was.

Importantly, students will be expected to arrive back at the end of their holidays, ready for what will hopefully be a 'restriction-free' year and full of learning and fun.

Congratulations to everyone, for making it through an amazingly difficult year.

Stay safe, stay healthy and enjoy special times with loved ones and friends.

I can't wait to see everyone online tonight from 6pm, to celebrate all of our wonderful students, staff and their 2020 achievements!

Holiday Planned Works

Please note, there will be significant capital works programs, for our school extension, continuing throughout the holiday break.

Works will include extensive work to our current site, as well as road infrastructure works in Dundas Street.

I'm sure you'll all agree, the works are progressing quickly and we are most fortunate to have an amazing new facility to look forward to in 2021.

I acknowledge the First People of the Wathaurong, who are the traditional custodians of the land and waters on which I work and live, and pay my respects to the Elders of the past, present and emerging.
