From the Principal
Dear Parents and Carers
This term has come to an end very quickly and I thank all our students, staff and parents for your ongoing support of the College. This newsletter is a comprehensive read and I encourage you to immerse yourself in the various news items from students and staff.
To finish the term we have organised a NAIDOC celebration day on Wednesday 29th June. Students will be at school for homeroom, period 1 and a special NAIDOC Assembly promoting the theme Get Up! Stand Up! Show Up! Following lunch students from each homeroom will participate in the annual Rachel Johnson Memorial Touch Football Competition. This is a sort-after trophy and we are looking forward to watching the hotly contested games that will be played throughout the afternoon. The day will finish with an end-of-term Assembly where the winners of the RJMTFC will be acknowledged.
Parents are reminded that on Thursday 30 June the College will be open with limited supervision provided, due to the protected industrial action being taken by the staff. Friday 1st July is a Staff Spirituality Day which is a Pupil Free Day.
