Summer Uniforms
As the warmer weather arrived early, students transitioned to their summer uniforms last week. Students were reminded of the standards regarding their uniform and expectations around presentation of self. Personal presentation is paramount and their attitude, behaviour and grooming must reflect the standards of the College. You send your children to Assumption College for the high standards we hold, and we appreciate your support of the College.
A couple of reminders:
• Skirts should brush the knee
• Ladies socks are ankle length (not invisible)
• Mens socks are knee high
• Hats are an essential part of the uniform
As always, if you need any assistance with your child’s uniform, please do not hesitate to contact your child’s Pastoral Leader.
Tuckshop
A reminder that mobile phones are not to be used whilst at school, including paying for Tuckshop. Please ensure that your student/s bring their Eftpos cards with them to pay for tuckshop.
Child Protection Week 1-7 September
The message this year is ‘Every child in every community needs a fair go’
National Child Protection Week aims to promote a safe and supported life for every child, today and every day.
Last year’s theme was ‘Where we start matters’, to build on that theme, this year is ‘Every conversation matters’.
Conversations are a powerful tool to keep young people safe. Conversations can help us understand issues, help craft solutions and build the brains and social connections of children.
So, please, engage with your children, listen to them, talk with them, and teach them to be safe.
