On Thursday 20th October, we conducted our 5th annual Year 7 Showcase night. This is a great opportunity for students to present work that they are proud of and continue to build on the culture we want at the College.  A culture where hard work and effort is acknowledged, celebrated and valued. Inviting parents to see and ask questions about our students work is an integral part of this ongoing push to really value learning and the education process.

A huge well done to the students who were brave enough to present their work. Being part of a community involves making a contribution to that community if it is to thrive and flourish. Which is what makes the effort of all students involved so admirable. It demonstrates a willingness to give and add to our school culture. There were some terrific pieces of work on display and it was great to see parents/carers interacting with our students and conversing over their learning experience in Year 7.

I would also like to acknowledge and thank the parents of all the students involved in the night for supporting the event. Through supporting your student’s participation, it demonstrates a high value on not only education but also the worth of contributing to our college community.

Again, it was a privilege to work with terrific young people who are eager to become the best they can be. An enormous well done to all our students involved in the evening and the support given from their teachers.
