Assistant Principal's Report

Building Works

Our new toilet block is almost complete. We are also almost finished renovating the old administration area into a new library space, and work on the B-Wing (Science/Childers) is ongoing.

On the weekend of December 15th and 16th there will also be significant works taking place including Independent Class A asbestos removers removing asbestos from the B-Wing. Therefore, there is to be no access to the College for the entirety of the weekend. Occupational Hygienists will issue a clearance certificate (including air clearance monitoring) to ensure that the school will be safe for students and staff to return Monday morning.

Please be mindful that anyone that enters the College grounds this weekend will be asked to leave immediately.

Splash Factory swimmers can access the pool but cannot park on school grounds.

Lockers

Please ensure all students have cleaned out their locker before Friday 14th December. There will be valuable calculators, textbooks, writing materials and stationary left behind without names on them which may end up being thrown out if they are left behind.

Booklists

Booklists for year 7-9 have been removed to save costs for families. All families will need to buy their own blank writing books, folders and stationary, as well as their iPad. The school has purchased class sets of textbooks.

Senior Booklists were due on the 5/12/18. Anyone that has not returned this yet will need to take it directly to Warrnambool Books.

The Bus Exchange

Please do not drive around the bus exchange roundabout either before or after school for school pick up or drop off. Warrnambool Bus Lines are very concerned about the safety of parents using this loop. This is not a Warrnambool College facility, it is owned by Warrnambool Council.

If you would like a quick drop off/pick up you could arrange a meeting point at a nearby sporting facility such as The Mac Oval, The Walter Oval or the Reid Oval and students could walk directly through Albert Park to school.
