From the Leader of Wellbeing - Year 9
Hi Year 9 students, parents, carers and guardians,
As we end Term 1, I would like to say that I am pleased with how our students have adjusted to the expectations of a year 9 student. They have been challenged this term with the increased workload, expectations of work quality and how they have been upholding themselves from a well-being point of view. As we enter term 2, I expect the students to continue this ethic. In saying this, we also have room to grow as students and as people. Year 9 students have been tasked with taking accountability for their actions as well as being taught about what it takes to be a person for others as well as how to be the best person they can be. Each student must continue to reflect on how they are as a person and set themselves goals and expectations of how they can improve on themselves.
Uniform:
As we enter into term 2, students will need to wear their winter uniform. This information can be found on pages 19A and 20A in the student learning planner.

I would like to announce that Ms Christella Bade has been appointed the Assistant Leader of Wellbeing for Year 9 for the remainder of 2025. Ms Bade brings a lot of great qualities and skills to our wellbeing team and our students are very grateful that she will be part of their growth and development as students.
