Junior School Report 

All Aboard for 2024

The end of the 2023 academic school year is fast approaching and our school, with your support, is preparing for 2024 – although we still have a little way to go. 

 

At the beginning of Term 4 all students were provided with a 2024 Re-enrolment Pack for all families to complete.  The pack consists of the following:

  • Personal Details Form – by which all general details, including contact details can be updated
  • Student Medical Form
  • College Agreement Form
  • College Contribution Form

Thank you to all families who have returned their completed forms.

 

If you did not receive the information, please contact the school on 9765 4100 or email scoresby.sc@education.vic.gov.au to request a pack.

The Children’s University program is an extra-curriculum program that aims to develop free-thinking and inquisitive children who enjoy learning. The program encourages students to become lifelong learners and achievers by curating educational experiences that offer a global perspective. All of the local Learning Destinations have a link to University, which fosters the children’s ambitions to consider participation in higher education.  I would hope that more students of the Junior School consider participating in the program in 2024.

 

Congratulations once again.  I look forward to the Graduation Ceremony.

Attendance for all students aged between 6 – 17 years of age is compulsory.  Evidence shows that daily school attendance is important for young people to succeed in education and to ensure they don’t fall behind both socially and developmentally.  Young people who regularly attend school and complete Year 12 or an equivalent qualification have better health and employment outcomes and enjoy higher incomes. 

 

Planning for 2024 will soon be underway.  All parents, guardians, students and teachers are urged to constantly access Compass for information on important dates and events.

 

Scoresby Secondary College prides itself on providing continued support to all students to assist in their learning and personal growth. We encourage positive and constructive partnerships with parents and guardians to ensure our students are inspired to be their very best. 

 

All students are expected to attend school and classes daily and any absences are to be reported on the absence hotline.  Parents and guardians are encouraged to contact either their students’ homegroup teacher or coordinator with any questions or concerns.
