Term Four is always an exciting and action packed term with many wonderful learning opportunities for students at every year level and at every campus. There have been several events for our parents and students to enjoy organised through our partner school such as Year 12 graduation Masses, celebrations of the Eucharist, ceremonies, assemblies and dress up days. There have also been many camps, excursions and school-based activities for our preps to Year 11 students, ensuring everyone is engaged and making the most of these opportunities provided across our campuses. Of particular importance is the conclusion of formal schooling for our Year 12 students. We are incredibly proud of our VCE students as they now commence their study period in preparation for their VCAA examinations. We are confident that our students will do well in their final examinations as they have been studying conscientiously and consistently over the past year. We are also very proud of our VCAL students, many of whom have already started workplace training or work. The skill and knowledge they have demonstrated in their chosen industry is commendable. I am sure you will all join me in wishing them well. |  |
| Learning and Teaching
We have continued to look for opportunities to improve our learning environments for students. Over the holiday break we installed a large shade sail and furnishings outside of the classrooms at the Wantirna South campus to enable learning to spill outdoors during the warmer months. We also installed interactive panels in our classrooms at Ringwood and Wantirna South, designed to make literacy learning more visual and interactive. We anticipate installing further panels at Sunbury, South Morang, Dandenong and Tarneit over the Christmas break. |  |
| Finally at this time, I would like to ask that we hold in our prayers and hearts all those affected by the devastating floods in Victoria as they manage the process of rebuilding their homes and livelihoods. |  |
