Welcome to Term 4 to all our students and their families. After a very busy Term 3, I hope all the students had an opportunity to have some downtime.
Parent Teacher Partnership Meetings
Thank you to all the parents that engaged with the teaching staff in our final PTSPM for the 2021 school year. It was encouraging to hear from the teachers that the parents were making appointments to hear about their child’s progress and what areas they can assist in developing their child’s skills and knowledge.
Return to Onsite Learning
As outlined by the Victorian State Government, all our Year 7 students will return to onsite learning from Monday 25 October and our Year 8 students two days a week for that week and the following week. In an effort to minimise the contact between the year levels there will an alternative bell times with the Year 7 students still finishing at 3:06 and our Year 8 students at 3:10. All students will continue to start the day at 8:40 but will go straight to their Period 1 class rather than homeroom. A list of period times can be seen below:

Furthermore, all masks are mandatory both in and out of the classroom and students are asked to bring a small backpack with their books for the day, to avoid going to their lockers.
Year 7 2022 Vodcast
A vodcast was distributed last night for all our 2022 Year 7s and their families, which was a replacement for our normal onsite presentation. There will also be a subsequent Question and Answer Session starting at 6:00pm on the following dates:
- 22 November: 7A & 7B
- 23 November: 7B & 7C
- 24 November: 7D & 7E
- 25 November 7F & 7G
- 26 November 7H & 7I
Please note that a Microsoft Teams link will be distributed and students will be notified of their 2022 homerooms in the week prior to these dates.
We look forward to welcoming the students back in just over a week.
