SCHOOL CALENDAR
A reminder that all parents can access the College calendar through Compass, to see upcoming events and activities - just follow the link from the ‘School Favourites’ (ie; the five-pointed star) menu in Compass.
UNIFORM
Full winter uniform must be worn throughout Term 3. Jewellery and make-up must not be excessive, and facial piercings are unacceptable (students wearing a facial piercing are not admitted to class, and will be sent home to remove it). All students must wear traditional leather lace-up shoes which are polished, and the School Blazer must be worn to and from school in Term 3. Students must not be wearing socks that have a brand displayed with their school uniform. We will conduct several uniform checks during form assemblies throughout the term and the Student Managers and Principal Class will be monitoring our students’ uniform before and after school.
MANAGED INDIVIDUAL PATHWAYS (MIPs)
All students in the Senior School will be interviewed by the student management team in the coming weeks, to reflect on their progress this year and identify ways to continue to improve. In preparation for these interviews, all students in Years 10, 11 and 12 must complete a brief questionnaire, which parents can view on Compass.
To view your child’s responses and the comments made by the student management team, log in to Compass, select ‘Student Profile’, select the ‘Insights’ tab and click (for example) ‘Mid-Year MIPS Yr 10’.
PRACTICE EXAMS - UNIT 3 / 4 SUBJECTS
All students undertaking a Year 12 subject this year are reminded that practice exams take place from Tuesday 2 to Thursday 4 October (this is the second week of the holidays). Parents need to ensure that no family holidays are booked during this time.
PARENT-TEACHER-STUDENT CONFERENCES
As in Semester 1, we will conduct Parent-Teacher-Student interviews for all students in all year levels on the same day (from 10:15am to 8:30pm), on Thursday 13 September. These conferences will be in place of the regular timetabled classes, and students will be expected to attend interviews with their parents in full school uniform (in lieu of the normal school day).
