Year 7-10 Award Ceremony Friday 5th July 9.05 am in the College Hall

The Year 7-10 Semester One Awards Ceremony will be conducted on Friday, 5th July from 9:05am - 10:05am in the College Hall. A Compass alert notifying you of your child being a recipient of an Outstanding Application or Achievement Award or a Community Service Award will be sent to all families by the middle of next week. Parents and family members are encouraged to attend as a way of celebrating the achievements of their child/relative throughout Semester One

Year 11 Awards Ceremony Wednesday 31st July 9:05am in the Performing Arts Centre

The Year 11 Awards Ceremony will be held in the Performing Arts Centre (PAC) on Wednesday, 31st July, from 9:05am until 10:00am.  This is because a large number of Year 11 students will have work placement during Week 10 and cannot attend the awards ceremony. This will also result in the reports being published at a later date to align with the ceremony in Week 2 of Term 3. A Compass alert notifying you of your child being a recipient of an Outstanding Application or Achievement Award or a Community Service Award will be sent to all families by the middle of Week 10 to avoid any confusion with the Year 7-10 Awards Ceremony. Parents and family members are encouraged to attend as a way of celebrating the achievements of their child/relative throughout Semester One
