Athletics Carnival – A Parade of Champions (and Costumes)

Move over Olympics, because the School Athletics Carnival was an absolute showstopper! Students brought their A-game, not just in athleticism, but in epic costumes. From gorillas and dinosaurs to bananas in pyjamas and lifeguards, the creativity was off the charts. Not only did our students run, jump, and throw with gusto, they also showcased their school pride and leadership in the best way possible, through fun, unity, and a little bit of friendly competition. Well-done, team!

VCE SAC Season – Time to Channel Your Inner Study Warrior

We’ve officially entered the End-of-Term Silly Season, also known as SAC-palooza. Assessments are coming thick and fast, and our students are balancing study with their social lives (and possibly the occasional nap).

Now is the time to plan wisely, study smart, and look after yourselves. Yes, you can still go out on the weekend, but maybe finish that revision first, yeah! Balance is key!

Parents, stock up on snacks, encourage regular breaks, and be ready with a pep talk if needed. Or just offer food. That usually works. 

Uniform Reminder – Hoodies Are for Home, Not School

As the warm weather begins to fade (slowly... please?), a quick reminder that school uniform expectations still apply. While we all love a comfy hoodie or a sneaky long-sleeve under the shirt, they’re not part of the uniform.

Let’s set the example for the rest of the school:

• Clean-shaven
• Correct school shoes (not black runners)
• Uniform worn with pride

Looking sharp = performing sharp. It’s science.

Senior School Catch-Up Sessions – We’ve Got You Covered

Missed a SAC? Behind on work? No stress—we’ve got a plan.
Catch-up classes run every Tuesday from 3:20pm to 4:30pm for students needing to:

• Sit redemptions
• Make up missed SACs
• Catch up on outstanding work

Your friendly YLC will let you know if you need to attend. Think of it as your personal academic pit-stop.

Attendance & Progress Reports – Keeping on Track

Our next round of progress reports is just around the corner! It’s a great time to reflect on how things have gone over the past month.

Senior students, just a reminder:

• You must maintain 80% attendance

• Being in class helps you meet outcomes, complete tasks, and keep up with assessments

• Netflix and naps don’t count as study (sorry)

Let’s stay focused and make the most of the last week of term!

Here’s to the final stretch of Term 1-full of progress, pride, and maybe a few bananas in pyjamas.

As always, thanks for your support!
