Updates For Term 3
As we embark on a new term we are excited to share some important updates and reminders with you.
College Pastoral Team
During the year we have had some changes to the Pastoral Team and more recently to the Year 7 cohort.
We thank and welcome Jacinta Obst to the team. Jacinta will be the Year 7 Pastoral Leader for the remainder of the year and we are confident that her guidance will be invaluable to our students.
We also welcomed Codie Ellis to the Senior Pastoral Leader role in Term 2. Codie has been providing exceptional support to our Year 11 and Year 12 students as they navigate their final terms at the College.
As always, if you need to speak with a Pastoral Leader, please do not hesitate to contact them via email or the front office.
Leadership
Our Year 11 leaders have been preparing for their step up to senior leadership which occurs from the beginning of Term 4.
Those students interested in leadership positions have submitted applications, had interviews and delivered speeches to the College. Unfortunately, it is not possible for all applicants to make it to the final step of delivering their speeches.
The students who have been unsuccessful in progressing have shown amazing resilience and support for their peers. This is a great show of maturity.
House Leader applicants will deliver their speeches during House Meetings in Week 4.
Once all votes have been counted and leaders elected, they will be announced at the Feast Day Mass and Leadership Induction on Thursday, 15 August 2024.
Uniform
The College knitted jumpers are back in stock at Danny Lyons sports store. The jumpers are a poly/cotton blend, perfect for those with allergies. A lined version of the jumper is also available upon request.
Communication
We appreciate the ongoing support from our parent community. Communication is the key to ensuring transparency, accurate, and first-hand information is received by parents and the College. Please be proactive in seeking clarity on any information you may be confused about.
We look forward to a term of learning, growth and community spirit!
