ELC Children have the option to wear Pyjamas!

 

Casual Dress Code:

  • No inappropriate slogans
  • No low-cut, strappy or midriff tops
  • No see-through clothing
  • No short-shorts and no open thong-type shoes (especially relevant to Home Ec and Tech lessons for safety reasons)

Learning Assistance Program in 2023

We are encouraged by the involvement of our many parents and community members who invest time into the education and support of our students and College life. 

 

If you are interested in becoming involved in our College community as a volunteer, you may be interested in The Learning Assistance Program (LAP).  LAP is a student-centred and volunteer-based mentoring program designed to assist schools to implement one-on-one learning that supports, guides and enriches the wellbeing and learning outcomes of their students from Foundation to Year 6. It focuses on the wellbeing, academic, social and emotional needs of students through the powerful and positive contribution of mentors. 

 

To find out more about LAP please visit our website 

 

If you would like to be involved in our College community in a meaningful way and you have a genuine interest in seeing young people grow in their education, faith and self-esteem, then we'd love to hear from you! Register your interest in being a LAP Student Mentor
