Exams

Next week (Week 7) will see the start of Semester 1 exams across the College and include all of the Junior School exams. If not aware already students will realise soon that preparation for these exams begins at the start of the year with good work ethic and focus in the classroom and a commitment to high standards of work in class and at home. In addition to this, now is the time for students to ensure they have the correct equipment, understand the behavioural expectations of exam conditions and complete any last minute study preparation. Remember that extra help is always available when sought and we wish all the members of our junior community the best of luck next week.

Year 7 & 8 House Sports Competition

Last Friday marked the first Year 7 & 8 House Sports Competition where all students represented their respective Houses in sports such as AFL, Volleyball, Handball, Chess and T-Ball for the final two periods of the day. It was a great opportunity to engage in a fun, energy filled finish to the week and allowed students and staff to mingle in a more social setting with many staff members getting actively involved. A great time was had by all and I’m sure that everyone involved would like to say a great big thank you to Mr Hill who worked tirelessly to make the day happen!

Uniform

Just a quick reminder with the cold weather setting in that our uniform expectations still remain high. Casual jumpers and hoodies are not are not part of the College uniform and therefore are not to be worn at school. Remember also that socks must be plain white, grey or black and not display any logos.
