Goings On In Secondary

Upcoming Launch of Year 9 at DCS

In 2025, DCS is excited to welcome our first cohort of Year 9 students, marking an important milestone in our school's journey. As our students progress into Years 9 and 10, they begin to explore their future educational and career paths, while also growing personally and spiritually.

Information Session Announcement 

We invite all DCS families to join us on Wednesday, 22nd May in the JILOA Centre for an information session about the launch of Year 9. This event will provide insights into the new opportunities available to our Year 9 and future Year 10 students.

Event Details:

Pre-event Meet and Greet: Start the evening with a warm drink from 6:45pm.

Information Session: The presentation will commence at 7:00pm and go until 8:30pm.

Special Invitation for Parents: We encourage parents of students in Years 5 - 8 to attend. This session will be particularly beneficial for you to understand how DCS will support your children through their crucial secondary school years.

We look forward to seeing you there and discussing how we can support our students together.

Walk Safely to School Day

This year National Walk Safely to School Day is held on Friday 10th May. This is a wonderful opportunity to gather as the DCS Community with our families and friends.

We will be meeting at the Splash carpark ready to leave at 8am and walking to school together via the walking track.  Once we arrive at school, Breakfast club will be open for breakfast treats and hot drinks.

But wait…there’s more!

All parents who wish to stay on for assembly can catch the DCS Bus back to Splash! The bus will be leaving from the Secondary area after assembly from 8:45am to get you back to your car if you wish. Otherwise, enjoy the walk back along the Don tracks at your leisure.

All families are welcome to attend! As this is a community event it is expected that students will walk under the supervision of their families.

This event will be weather permitting. Families will be notified via Schoolbox and Facebook should we need to cancel.

We are looking forward to a great morning!

Secondary Cross Country

All Secondary students will be participating in the DCS Secondary Cross Country on Tuesday 14th May from 1.30pm. 

Parents are warmly invited to come and watch students' race here at school and through the Don Reserve tracks.

Please ensure that on the day your child wears their P.E uniform. A house-coloured t-shirt can be worn in place of the P.E. t-shirt, and students should bring the following:

• Plenty of water to drink
• Jumper/raincoat
• Spare clothes, shoes and socks in case they get wet and/or muddy.

This will once again be a wonderful community event, with all community members welcome to come and support students.
