Academic Care and Wellbeing - Students
Welcome to Term 2! Whilst online learning is still our primary method of teaching, we are excited to soon have some students back in the classroom!
For senior students returning in Weeks 3 and 4, please remember that you must be in full winter uniform and that our expectations around appearance, particularly hair, apply as per usual. The Uniform Shop remains open at the normal times on Wednesday and Friday. Girls, the new microfibre navy tights that you chose are now available!
Year 12, are asked to please meet in the Resource Centre on Monday, May 11 at 8:45am.
It has been great to see so many of our students as I pop into homegroup ZOOM’s. It’s a good idea to follow a ‘normal’ routine that has students up, dressed and ready for the start of a school day. It is important for the Homegroup teacher to see students every morning. If students are unable to ZOOM, please send an email to the class teacher to let them know. If students need any IT support, please email mdcc-helpdesk@ww.catholic.edu.au so that our staff can help you maintain your online learning.
Grandparents Day Cancellation
Due to the current restrictions around gathering in large numbers, and concern for the vulnerability of the elderly, we advise that our Grandparents Day for Year 7, scheduled for this Friday 8 May, has been cancelled.
We hope that we will be able to reschedule this event at some point in the future.
2021 Leadership Opportunities
Year 11 students, are invited to start thinking about 2021 leadership opportunities. This is the time to try writing an application and think about effective ways to address peers. This can included considering how personal vision and goals can be shared with students in younger year groups.
Students may reflect on what they have experienced in their time at Mater Dei so far and ways they could ensure everyone has the same opportunities and experiences.
Can student leaders make it even better for those following? What might a good legacy at Mater Dei be?
My throwback for this week is in memory of the Athletics Carnival that wasn’t to be this year… I wonder if Carroll could have pulled off the threepeat??
