VHAP:

This term we have two students, Tom and Don, undertaking the Primary Numeracy Victorian High Ability Program. This week they investigated ‘Patterns’. Aside from the weekly online sessions, the boys have tasks to complete at home.

SWPBS:

School-wide Positive Behaviour Support (SWPBS) is a framework that brings together school communities to develop positive, safe, supportive learning cultures.

SWPBS assists schools to improve social, emotional, behavioural and academic outcomes for children and young people.

When SWPBS is implemented well, teachers and students have more time to focus on relationships and classroom instruction.

Our first School Wide Positive Behaviour Support Team meeting will take place this coming Monday at 1pm. If you (students or parents or staff) are interested in being part of the team, please contact Kim Fitzpatrick. 

Whole School Assembly:

Monday 2nd March at 9 am in the stadium. All the college community are welcome to attend our Mid-Term 1 Assembly to celebrate all the achievements of the term to date.
