Celebrating all that is Good with Joy and Gratitude
It was wonderful to be able to celebrate our Academic High Achievers from 2020 and our Scholars of Distinction at our Term 1 Assembly today. The outstanding results that were achieved by these students is testament to not only their academic fortitude, but to their ability to persevere, stand by each other and live their lives with purpose and integrity.
Our graduates go on to study in a range of fields, and with such a diverse range of post school pathways being undertaken we are excited to see the positive influence that Kilbreda girls will have in their communities, both now and in the future. With such amazing role models from the last year we are also looking forward to seeing what the class of 2021 will achieve.
Parent/Teacher Interviews – Save the Date
At the College we value the opportunity to partner with families in the education of their daughters. One such opportunity to connect is through the participation in parent/teacher interviews. The girls are encouraged to attend and engage in conversation regarding their learning. These parent/teacher interviews will be held online via Microsoft Teams, with details on making a booking being communicated with families in the coming weeks.
Save the dates:
- Wednesday 24 March from 2.45pm to 8.00pm
- Friday 26 March from 9.00am to 4.00pm
Australian Catholics – Internship Program
Australian Catholics is offering a chance for Year 10 and 11 students across Australia to apply for their media internship program in 2021. This is an exciting opportunity for students interested in a career in journalism, communications, media or publishing.
This year's program will take place online from 10 to 15 May. Successful applicants will join the rest of their guest editorial team and staff via teleconference throughout the week to plan, workshop and write articles for the spring edition.
Students will have the chance to learn how a magazine edition is developed, engaging in the creative thinking and planning that begins the process. Australian Catholics will ensure they understand all of the elements that bring together a publication, as well as giving them specific focus as they produce their own articles for publication.
The deadline for applications for this year's program is Monday 15 March.
For more details regarding this program please visit the Australian Catholics website HERE.
