Principal's Message

Dear Families, Students and Community Members,

We are edging closer to the finish of our first year with the end of term getting closer by the day. We officially have only 13 actual school days left for our Year 7's before they will enjoy a well-earned break. 

As we approach the end of our foundation year, it is an opportunity to reflect on what has been accomplished by both students and staff. It has been a wonderful beginning to the creation of our new school and what learning looks like here in Tarneit West. Our students have now well and truly settled into their secondary school routines, and it’s been encouraging to see their curiosity, creativity, and determination as they focus on their learning & wellbeing, both in the classroom and the school more broadly. Whether they’re exploring new ideas, challenging themselves with academic goals, or building strong relationships with peers, it’s clear that our school community is thriving and our students have aspiration to achieve strong growth in their learning.

I’m exceptionally proud of how our staff, both teachers and education support, have worked collaboratively to implement engaging and rigorous lessons and supports that keep our students motivated and excited about learning and coming to school every day. As we enter the final weeks of the school year, we encourage all our families to stay involved and connected with teachers to continue supporting your child’s growth. These last few weeks are just as important for student attendance, as they finalise assessments and begin to get ready for Year 8.

2025 Enrolment Updates:

As the College finalises its planning for 2025, we ask that any families that are aware their child will be changing schools in 2025, to please let the front office know. Likewise, if families know of other families looking to join Brinbeal Secondary College and have not yet applied for enrolment; encourage them to do so. Reminder, we are a zoned school, all students must reside in the zone to be guaranteed placement.

Kind Regards, 

Mr. Simon Haber
