If you have an issue or question, then the first person to contact would be the Mentor Teacher as they see the student at the start of each day.
Student Leaders
Congratulations to all of our Student Leaders for 2024. In Week 8 of Term 4 last year, we went on a Planning and Leadership Camp and the whole group are to be commended on their application to their positions and their contributions to planning out their year. The Student Leaders are a dynamic group and we are all looking forward to working with them.
I have listed below the Leadership group for 2024. The Year 7s have just been on their camp as well so they will be selecting Student Leaders later in the term and we will also be appointing 2 Middle School Leaders from our Year 9 group.
Attendance
If your child is going to be absent from school or has been absent then please contact our Absentee Officer, Colleen Hockley. Students who miss school place themselves at educational risk and for prolonged authorised absences there may be something that we can do to ensure that the impact on learning is lessened. When you send in your absence we also need to know the reason. Saying your child is at home is not an explanation. Saying they are 'home sick' or 'home for personal reasons' is acceptable but failing to provide a valid reason means they will be marked as an unexplained absence. If you have any questions then please contact Mrs Hockley on 9293 6409.
Just in closing please stay in touch with your child’s teachers as high school is a partnership. We need and want your input on how things are travelling so please do not ever be afraid to get in contact with us. Generally, the best way to do this is by email so just contact the front office and they will be able to put you in touch with the relevant staff member.
Office of E-Safety
I have been fielding some questions on Cybersafety so I want to add in this website for you.
I will start to provide more information when I find it but this are a great tool and wonderful place to go to for tips and advice.
