To our new families, welcome! My name is Denise Ryan, and I’m the College Chaplain. I am here to provide social, emotional, and spiritual support to students and/or staff.

Classroom Visits

On Wednesday 9 February 2022, I had the pleasure of visiting Year 7 classes throughout the day, introducing myself and my role at Assumption College. We discussed the importance of decision making in the classroom, during our lunch breaks, at home, and even when we attend extra-curricular activities. We all have three choices we can make (see pictures below). Choice one is not the most productive choice to make, choice two reflects poor attitude, and the third choice is entering the classroom with an open mind and heart, just simply 'giving it a go'.

Breakfast Club

We have had a wonderful start to the year with our Breakfast Club, where plenty of old and new faces have made the most of what is on offer. For those who are unaware, on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings from 7:30am to 8:40am, we host a Breakfast Club. We have a variety of options; toast with jam, vegemite, honey, cereal, juice and Milo! 

Library Competitions

It was decided this Monday, after much discussion and brainstorming, that our Library competitions this term will be a Model Doomsday Preparation Competition, and a drawing competition. There will be several different categories in which the students can enter, more details will be available next week.

Remember to smile and be grateful for the small gifts in which we receive everyday. Have a great week! Please feel free to contact me via the College phone number or via email, for any questions or concerns: denise.ryan@twb.catholic.edu.au.
