School Student Broadband Initiative

Are you eligible for the School Student Broadband Initiative?

 

 

The Australian Government has launched the School Student Broadband Initiative to provide free home internet for one year for up to 30,000 unconnected Australian families with school-aged students.

 

The program is available to all students who lack an active nbn connection at home. Families can register until Dec 2024.

 

To be eligible, families must:

  • Have a child living at home that is enrolled in an Australian school.
  • Not have an active National Broadband Network (nbn®) Internet service at home. Having a mobile internet service does not affect eligibility.
  • Live in a home that can access the National Broadband Network via a standard connection – this will be checked for you.

Families can be directed to the following to register:

Book Fair

We are excited to begin preparation for our Annual Bookfair in Week 7 of Term 3.

 

Throughout the years, our students have loved wandering through the Book Fair and making their wish lists. Our College receives reward points from sales made at the Scholastic Book Fair. These points are then used to purchase valuable resources for our students.

 

To run such a successful event, we require assistance from our College Community. If you are able to assist with preparing decorations (e.g. cutting out, etc) at home, please email judy.schwarz@cewa.edu.au. 

MacKillop House Day

 

On Thursday 8 August, we will be celebrating our MacKillop House Day and the Liturgy of the Word. 

 

After the Liturgy, students from MacKillop House will receive a sausage sizzle. Please take the time to complete the form if your child has any dietary requirement or if you are available to assist with the cooking and preparation of the sausage sizzle.
