Student Leadership

Over the past two weeks, I have had great pleasure in being a part of the 2021 Student Leadership interviews.  There were a total of 63 applications which is a fantastic reflection on our Year 11 students who are putting themselves forward to be a part of the Student Leadership Team.

The process of selection is taken from a balance of application and interview for most positions.  College Captain potential candidates must also speak in front of their peers with Year 11 students and staff later completing an online preference for applications.

All students have performed well and we are very proud of them for the efforts that they have put in.  Announcements will be made of the successful candidates towards the end of the term.

Stranger Danger

The safety of all of our children is paramount to not only families and the College but to the whole community.  This is a reminder to help our children understand the importance of stranger safety and the need to report any unusual incidents or approaches to staff immediately.

If you become aware of an incident or notice anyone acting suspiciously around any school or child, contact police immediately on 131 444. In the case of an emergency, call 000. If you witness an incident or if you have any information that could assist police, you can contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000. Information can be provided anonymously.

Please support us to keep our children safe by having conversations with your child about moving safely around the community and what to do if they ever feel unsafe.
