Uniform. Uniform. Uniform.
Although the present weather may make you wonder if I have lost my mind mentioning winter uniforms, Term 2 means the return of our winter uniform. Please use the next four-five weeks to have items cleaned and altered so that there is no need for staff to engage in conversations that should not need to be had. Please do not place the responsibility of your child wearing the correct uniform on the College. As parents, you play a vital role in ensuring your child wears the correct school uniform as it instills discipline, teaches responsibility, and fosters a sense of belonging. By ensuring the College uniform policies are met, you help prepare your children for the expectations of the academic and professional world while promoting a conducive learning environment.
Year 10 Central Australia Tour
Attention parents of Year 10 students!
Very soon parents will be asked to submit an expression of interest for their child to be considered for the Central Australia Trip.
Please understand spots are limited and, as is the case every year, more students apply for spots than are available. To help determine participants, past attitudes and cooperation are considered in our selection process. Should demand exceed availability, fairness will be maintained through a random number generator.
In the next few weeks we will be sending all parents of Year 10 students a link to the expression of interest form. Keep an eye out for a link if you are keen for your child to be involved.
Uniform donations
Natalie Virgona
Community Development Coordinator
The College is now accepting donations of second-hand blazers, shirts, dresses, skirts and sports uniforms. We please ask that all donations are in great condition. We will not be accepting any uniform that is not in near new condition. Donations can be dropped off at reception during school hours. Please email Community Development Coordinator Natalie Virgona at nvirgona@mlmc.vic.edu.au if you have any questions.
