College Matters

College calendar 

For professional development, report writing and PTSI the school year includes some student free days and early finish times. In 2023 the aim is to reduce the number of student free days and increase class contact hours. There have also been some changes to the all-school event calendar. For example NAPLAN has moved from May to March.   

To assist with families planning here is a list of key events and activities. Important dates will continue to be in newsletters. All events will be advised on Compass and through Newsfeeds.
