Principal's Welcome

Dear Parents, Students and Friends

I would like to raise awareness of the importance of school attendance this week.

There is no safe number of days for missing school. If a student misses as little as four days each term, they will have missed over a year of learning by the end of their schooling.

Schools in the Archdiocese of Canberra & Goulburn work in partnership with parents/carers to encourage and support regular attendance of children and young people at school.
Education in NSW and the ACT is compulsory for all children between the ages of six years and below the minimum school leaving age.

The importance of arriving on time

Arriving at school, Homeroom and class on time:
  • ensures that students do not miss out on important information and learning activities that set them up for success for the day;
  • helps students learn the importance of punctuality and routine;
  • gives students time to greet their friends before class, and
  • reduces classroom disruption.

Lateness is recorded as a partial absence and must be explained by parents/carers.




Catholic Education Canberra Goulburn (CECG) identifies the following levels of attendance:

Have you checked your child’s attendance overview in Sentral? How are they tracking?

Congratulations to our budding actors who were fabulous this week in the school play, ‘The Alibis’. A lot of laughs and cleverly scripted moments! Special thanks to Mrs Teagan Lomax and Mrs Anna Smart for their leadership. Also, to Mr Matt King for his support with sound and lighting and Year 11 VET Entertainment student, Logan Baumer. A brilliant team effort as always!

Congratulations to Charlotte Wood who has completed a Certificate III in Real Estate as part of her School Based Apprenticeship and Traineeship (SBAT). This early completion is a credit to Charlotte given the additional workload of Year 12.

Enjoy the long weekend this weekend. I hope you have something special planned. A reminder to 2025 Year 11 students and parents that our compulsory Subject Selection Information Evening is next Tuesday 11 June at 6pm in the Hall. I draw your attention to this date as we will be coming off the long weekend.

With respect and encouragement to you.
