From the Assistant Principal Students

Thanks for a great term

Term 2 has been a very busy term. I would like to thank the staff, students and parents for all the great work in Learning, Sport and other activities. It is great to see the college coming together to ensure the best outcomes for all students and staff.

A big thanks goes out to all the staff and students involved in Debating, Athletics and sports, the Tribe initiative, Unity Day, and Business Sim to name a few. The hard work from staff and the involvement from students has made all the events a great success.

Please spend the holiday period relaxing and preparing for Term 3. I look forward to another great term of learning and involvement.

Term 3

School resumes on Monday 12th July. All students are expected to be in full College Winter uniforms. All uniform expectations should be evident including hairstyles, jewelry and blazers.

Term 3 is an important term for all students but in particular the Year 11 and 12 who will have the HSC trials and Preliminary examinations as well as the final Year 12 Graduation. It is an important and stressful time for the students and we wish them all the best in these important events.

What’s in the planner?

Students can help develop their own meaning and purpose through learning about and accepting the diversity of cultures at the College and in society. Understand and accepting cultures helps us understand other's perspectives and helps us build social connectedness. 

Humour is a wonderful character strength, which creates uplifting positive emotions and optimism. Laughter is contagious and fun becomes contagious which can lead to hope and happiness for others and us.

We should always aim to be around positive and optimistic people. Being around positive people helps nudge your mindset to be more growth orientated. The benefits of humour include: strengthening the immune system, reduced stress pressure and release of feel good brain chemicals.

Character strengths include Leadership and honesty. These are values that we aspire to at the College. 

All the best over the holidays and be safe.

God Bless
