Assistant Principal's Report

Since our last newsletter, the SRC have been busy planning Multicultural Week. It is an event that all staff and students look forward to each year. The week celebrates the diversity of all members of the College community, and includes a range of activities including ochre and henna painting, dreamtime story telling, photobooth, a range of cultural performances and an out of uniform day- cultural dress as well as a fashion show. Students are always keen to participate and encourage those of other cultures to share their culture. This is one of our strengths of the College- recognising and encouraging the diversity of others.

On the of 3rd of May, SRC representatives from years 10-12 participated in the Joanne Ryan SRC Leadership Forum. It was an interactive day which bought students from across the electorate together to develop their leadership skills. Students were given the opportunity to work collaboratively in groups to identify and create a practical plan to implement in their schools throughout the year. All students who participated enjoyed the experience, especially being able to speak to others about their leadership and ways to continue to build their confidence in leading.

Students have completed the Attitude to School survey. This survey gives students the opportunity to provide the College with feedback on a range of areas.  The College leadership team as well as all staff will review the results and look at ways to continue to improve the educational experience of all students, not just academically, but socially and emotionally as well.
