Learning & Teaching at the College

    Learn_Teach.png

    Welcome to a new year of learning!

    As we commence the new school year, it is a great time for students to set new goals for their learning and challenge themselves to implement strategies to maintain their focus and enthusiasm. This is also a great opportunity for discussions with your child about what they are going to be learning about this year.

    We look forward to a positive year where students will take on the opportunities for excellence that are presented to them in each and everyone of their learning environments. 

    Year 10 Commencement Evening - Wed 12 February 7pm

    This coming Wednesday evening Year 10 students and their parents/guardians are invited to attend the Year 11 Commencement Evening. The purpose of this event is to ensure that Year 10 commence their Senior learning journey in a positive and informed manner and will be an opportunity for parents/guardians to meet their child’s Pastoral Advisor. The evening will commence at 7pm in the Champagnat Centre. 

    Change of Course Requests

    We have had a number of conversations with students from Years 9, 10 and 11 wanting to change courses or electives. Please note that Friday 21 February (Week 4) will be the last opportunity for students to submit any Change of Course forms to Mr Hagan or Ms Miller. Significant changes to their pattern of study will be brought to your attention prior to the Change of Course form being approved and processed. Please be mindful that not all requests for change can be actioned.

    Assessment Handbooks 

    In the next fortnight, students will be receiving their 2025 Assessment Handbooks. Students and parents are encouraged to read these carefully to ensure that College and NESA Assessment Policies and Procedures are followed and due dates for formal assessment tasks are met. We ask that families be mindful of the assessment dates for their child if planning to apply for Pre- Approved Leave from the Principal and to encourage them to use their college diaries and online calendars to assist with their organisation in completing these.
