Learning from Home - Next Steps
As communicated to all families in a letter from the Principal on 2 November, students in Years 10, 11 and 12 will be invited to learn from home on some Mondays in 2024, if they have attained the Flipped Learning Micro-credential and met the criteria communicated.
Parents will be notified if their child qualifies for at-home learning by Friday 1 December. Parents of these students will be required to attend an in-person or online seminar in Week 9 of this term, outlining the requirements and expectations of learning from home. Please 'save the date' for the seminars which will be held on the following days:
- Tuesday 5 December 7.00pm
- Thursday 7 December 7.00pm
We encourage in-person attendance; however, for those who are unable to come to the College we will be organising an online option.

This unmissable event is sure to be fascinating, moving, and inspirational for people of all ages.

He has collaborated with Dr. Catherine Hamlin and along with his aunt Valerie Browning, and father, Dr David Browning, is the founder of the Barbara May Foundation.
After Dr Browning's oration, drinks and canapés will be served, and some images from the Chevalier College Draft Master Building Plan will be unveiled.

Carols on The Meadow
Our Carols on The Meadow evening is on Thursday 30 November 2023 at 5.00pm. We are looking forward to the Chevalier community coming together for a fun-filled evening of student performances, delicious food and Christmas spirit!
2024 Uniform
Any students still wearing the old style uniform will need to update their uniform for 2024, as communicated in the Principal's Message in Need to Knows on 31 March this year.
We advise you to purchase the new uniform before Friday 24 November, when the shop closes until January, so that you do not need to come into the Chev Shop during the holidays. Students are welcome to come to the Shop during breaks on Thursdays and Fridays. We gladly accept payments over the phone and students can collect.
Holiday opening hours can be found on the College website.
Enrolments
If you have a child in Year 7 – 11 who will be leaving the College at the end of this academic year, please send a notification email to enrolments@chevalier.nsw.edu.au.
Bike Racks
Now that the weather is a little warmer, we remind you that bike racks are available for students to secure their bikes if they wish to ride to school. The racks are located in the centre of the College in the walkway between the library and the main admin building.

A Year 12 international Chev student is in need of a host family for 2024. For more information regarding this opportunity, please contact John Hargreaves via office@chevalier.nsw.edu.au.
