Leading The Way


Head of Year 11
Year 11 Block Exams will take place in Week 9. Students recently attended an information session with Mrs Ross, Assistant Principal Learning, and families should have received an email from Mr Cahill, our Leader of Curriculum Logistics, outlining the structure and expectations for the week. Students are encouraged to continue reviewing course content, seek clarification from teachers where needed, and plan their study time in preparation for the exam period.
Students are reminded to complete the Google Form emailed last Tuesday, to indicate their plans for the Study Day on Monday 23 March. All students must complete the form, even if they do not have an exam scheduled. Students may resubmit the form if circumstances change. The survey will close on Thursday 19 March (COB).
As we move into the final weeks of term, it is important for students to maintain balance in their routines. Adequate rest, regular activity, and steady daily routines all support focus, wellbeing, and learning. Students are encouraged to reach out to their Pastoral Mentor or the Guidance Counsellors for support or guidance at any time.

At the College, students are required to adhere to the uniform and personal grooming guide. We want to support families, students, and teachers in understanding specific requirements, particularly for sports shoes. We know students are currently wearing shoes in the 'not suitable' section of the graphic below.
To provide clarity, we have listed the main shoes worn by students with their sports uniforms that require fixing and shoes must meet expectations for the start of Term 2. This provides you and your family time to make changes to comply with the uniform guideline outlined in the College Diary under Uniforms: Sport shoes - Low cut, supportive, lace-up, all-purpose shoes for running with a suitable grip. Colour scheme should be discreet. Skate shoes and other flat-soled shoes are not acceptable.
The shoes shown in the graphic below are examples we frequently see; they are not the ONLY shoes not permitted. If you are unsure of the correct shoes, please send a picture or ask your child to speak with the Head of Year for clarification. Uniform infringement consequences will come into play at the commencement of Term 2. We appreciate your support in making it very clear what we expect regarding appropriate footwear at the College.






Please note that all key dates are listed in the College Calendar. This can be accessed via the MyCE Parent App and synced with your personal calendar.
