It was wonderful to host the families of Year 7 students at the College last night for our Meet the Teacher evening. The Year 7s did a great job showing their families their locker, their lunch hang out and all their classrooms which was wonderful. They were also able to introduce their teachers from each of the different faculties and staff really enjoyed getting to know the parents and guardians of the students in their classes. It was lovely to share a simple meal in fellowship together and hopefully the information presented at our brief session after dinner was useful. I am so proud of the way that Year 7 students have adjusted to learning in Senior School.
The Term is well under way now and what a great event the Swimming Carnival was. Team spirit and participation was high throughout the day and the vast majority of students were in attendance to swim or support. We were able to select a great team to represent the College at the next level and I commend these representative swimmers for the extra training they have been attending in preparation.
It has been my joy to once again be involved in the Basketball program at the College. It is exciting to see students striving to do their best and work within a team environment. We hope for both some good results and good character to be on display once again this year and I want to thank Mrs Focas for all of the organising of the programs.
Hopefully your children have had a great start to the year and have settled well. The College has had a relaxed and purposeful vibe permeating the playgrounds and classrooms. Please reach out if we can assist with any questions or issues.
