Happy International Women’s Day 8 March 2025

The IWD 2025 campaign theme is 'Accelerate Action'.

Fact file - Collectively, we can Accelerate Action for gender equality. According to data from the World Economic Forum at the current rate of progress, it will take until 2158, which is roughly five generations from now, to reach full gender parity.

The Accelerate Action theme emphasizes the importance of taking swift and decisive steps to achieve gender equality. It calls for increased momentum and urgency in addressing the systemic barriers and biases that women face, both in personal and professional spheres.

The focus is to Accelerate Action to speed up the rate of progress worldwide.

Year 7 and Year 11 Peer Support Camp

Our Year 7 and Year 11 students along with staff had a wonderful experience on camp last week. Lake Tabourie was the perfect setting with weather to match. We hope that new relationships have been forged not only between Year 7 but also with the Year 11 peer support leaders who did an outstanding job supporting our youngest students. Thank you to Ms Boller for her wonderful organisation supported by our staff who generously gave up their time to ensure this event was successful for our students.

Communication reminder

Carroll College values the strong relationship we have with our parents and carers. We strive to share important information about the progress and behaviour of students so we can work together. We appreciate the support we receive. Parents and carers are encouraged to reach out to the Pastoral team if there is any change for their child that we need to be aware of to assist them whilst at school.

Kind regards

Mrs Louise Ibbett
Assistant Principal – Pastoral Care
