From the Deputy Principal
Where does time go? Another term is gone and school holidays are upon us again. With Year 12 students soon to finish their classes in early Term 4, I would like to take this opportunity to thank our student leaders for their energy and commitment to our wonderful community.
As one door closes another opens for our next group of student leaders. After writing applications, interviews, voting and speeches, students will be contacted during the holidays to inform them if they have been successful or not in joining the 2023 Student Leadership Team as a Prefect or Captain. I wish all applicants well.
As Term 4 begins, so does the wearing of summer uniform. Our biggest concern is the amount of physical growth that has taken place over the last two terms. Please ask your child to try on their summer dresses over the break to ensure hem lines are at the knee. The last thing we wish to engage in is conversations about uniform issues that should not exist.
Term 4 also marks the return of students being required to wear hats at recess and lunchtime. As a SunSmart school, the wearing of hats is compulsory.
Finally, best wishes to our Year 10 students going on the Central Australia and Top End tour and the Tasmania tour. An extra special thank you to the staff who are giving up a substantial amount of their holiday to make these tours possible.
