St John's Family Picnics - 3rd Sunday of the Month

Emmaus Open Day

Dear Prospective Emmaus families,

It is becoming increasingly apparent that the COVID-19 virus has the potential to have a significant impact on schools and the wider community.  Emmaus College has reviewed information received from both the Catholic Education Commission Victoria (CECV) and the Department of Health and Human Services and decided to postpone our Open Day scheduled for Thursday 26th March. We typically have around 700+ visitors to our school on this day, and in the current circumstances, it is prudent to protect our school community and visitors. Front and centre to all our decision making is our obligation to safeguard our students and staff, and any visitors to our school community. We hope to be able to hold an Open Day in coming months, once the threat of COVID-19 has passed. We expect to be able to continue to run our regular smaller tours during Term 2 and Term 3. A reminder that enrolments for Year 7 2022 close on 21st August this year.
