Academic Excellence Morning Tea
On Thursday 15th May, we hosted the first of our Excellence Morning Teas for the year. This event focussed on our highest academic performing students whose impressive efforts are the result of ongoing hard work, perseverance and dedication to their studies. It was lovely to share this moment with the students, as well as the parents and carers who attended. The next Excellence Morning Tea will occur in Term 3 and focusses on students who have demonstrated top marks in their Behaviour and Effort for Semester 1.
School Immunisation Program (SIP):
Just a reminder that the first Clinic visit for the School Immunisation Program for students in Years 7 and 10 is planned for Thursday 29th May. This will be held in the Community Hub (B Block) during Sessions 1 and 2.
Your child should have already received a consent pack that contains an information sheet with details about the disease, benefits of immunisation and any common side effects and a vaccination consent form. This consent needs to be returned by the morning of the clinic visit – 29th May.
Only students with a completed and signed consent form on the day of the school immunisation clinic will be vaccinated. If you do not return a consent form or the form is incomplete, you may be contacted by the immunisation provider to check if you consent to have your child vaccinated.
