Finding our new normal - Students return next week

We are all looking forward to the return of more students next week. From Week 3, commencing next Monday 11th May, all students are invited to return to face to face schooling, five days a week. The decision to send students to school rests with parents/carers. Teachers will resume normal timetabled lessons and continue to use Schoolbox in a modified capacity for those electing to stay home.

Parent/carer access to the College due to COVID-19 and social distancing requirements

An important part of students returning, is limiting the number of adults that enter the College. We ask you not enter the College grounds, with the exception of the Front Office. Please use the new and improved Kiss and Drop Zone and continue to use email or phone where possible.

Mother's Day Stall tomorrow (Thursday)

Don't forget to give your children a few dollars to buy something for Mum. Secondary students are also welcome to visit the stall during recess and lunch tomorrow.

Painting Work Progress

The College continues to be transformed as the painting work continues.

Primary Building Framework

It has been great to see the new Primary Building framework being erected this week, it's always exciting when there is a big crane on site.

Learning@Home continues this week

We have had around 55% of students Learning @ Home over these first few days of Week 2.
