2019 Presentation Night

Please ensure that Monday 9 December is in your diary for Presentation Night. Attendance is compulsory for all Year 3 to Year 11 students; Year 12 students are strongly encouraged to be there for their last occasion, even though their celebration as a cohort is the Valedictory Dinner. Of course all College families are encouraged and welcome; why not enjoy dinner at one of the many eateries along South Wharf or at Crown earlier in the evening. A letter with all details about Presentation Night will be emailed to parents later in the term.

Parent Information on My Aitken

In the Resources / Parents section on My Aitken, there is much information for parents of Aitken students, from term dates and calendar to canteen and uniform. Also included are policy statements that we encourage parents to be aware of. The Cybersafety policy describes how both classroom curriculum and management procedures are used to protect children from harm when using ICT. The Student Discipline Policy describes how student behavioural management is carried out in the College.
