Hats

As we are in Term 4, it means that all students need to wear a hat when they are outside. Can everyone please remember to bring their hats to school, and remember if you don’t have your hat, you will be required to sit in the m-wing during recess and lunch. If you require a new school hat, they can be purchased from Earles.

Uniforms

Please remember that the uniform is a Horsham College top, blue shorts of a decent length, black shoes with white or black socks. We have noticed a few non Horsham College hoodies, hats and t-shirts in the yard. Please check in with your students that they are wearing the correct school uniform. 

Locks

There are still several people who don’t have locks on their locker, please ensure you have a lock, so that your books etc are protected. We recommended a combination lock however if you have a lock and key please ensure it has a spare and bring the spare lock to the Year 7 office for YLCs to hold. 

SEQTA 

Term 4 will bring with it new topics and assessments for the Year 7s. At the end of this term students will receive a report with a standard level given. To ensure that students are able to meet their full potential please ensure you are encouraging students to stay on top of their work requirements and CATs. If they have any concerns please get them to reach out to their teachers. Students can also attend Maths and English support sessions after school on Wednesday’s from 3:30 in M13.
