Principal's Report
Concord School
Term 4
We are now well into Term 4, and the weeks are certainly flying by! There is plenty happening across both campuses as students continue working towards the end of their learning programs, while also enjoying the many activities, events and celebrations that make this time of year so special.
With the end of the school year getting closer, there is lots happening behind the scenes as staff prepare for our upcoming graduations, end-of-year celebrations and the transition into 2027. It is a busy time, but also a great opportunity to reflect on the progress our students have made and celebrate their achievements throughout the year.
Thank you to our families and wider school community for your ongoing support and involvement. We look forward to making the most of these final weeks together and finishing the year on a high.
Recent Highlights
Our Lower Primary students recently took to the stage with their production of A Spooky Night. It was a fantastic performance and a wonderful opportunity for students to showcase their talents. A big congratulations to all involved!
Our Year 12 students are also getting ready for their final few weeks of school. To kick off their celebrations, they headed down to the Mornington Peninsula this week for their Year 12 camp. It has been a fantastic opportunity for students to spend time with their friends and staff, make some more special memories and enjoy these final weeks together before finishing their time at Concord.
