2024 Student Leaders’ Selection Process

Last week we began our 2024 Captain selection process. I was so impressed with the quality of our candidates and the effort they made with their speeches. Following student voting, shortlisting and interviews, I am very pleased to congratulate and appoint the following students to the leadership roles:

School Captains: Abby Logan and Harrison Basile

Vice Captains: Mischa Tran and Oscar McAllister

This week we continue with our process, selecting our House Captains and in Week 3 our Project Captains.  The current Year 3-5 students are involved in the voting process.  Best of luck to all candidates.

Quadrennial School Review

Following our school review, we will have a report outlining the external teams affirmations and recommendations for our next 4 year strategic plans. Across this term I will lead the final consultation opportunity for students, parents and staff through surveying and workshops. My aim is to ensure that by the end of this term we will have developed our 2024-27 Strategic Vision and Values. The key priorities and implementation strategies will be completed by the end of term 1 2024. This final Strategic plan will then be shared through our P&C and will inform our Annual Implementation Plan for each of the following 4 years. I encourage you to take the time to respond to the forms survey as it is sent out this term. 

Gifts and Benefits information

A reminder that school staff are required to declare any gifts over $150. Any declarations should be given to the Principal. 

Workplace Health and Safety

We completed our term 4 evacuation drill last week. Next week we will conduct our term lockdown drill and our WHS Committee meeting. Currently we are also reviewing our safety policy and procedures and will develop our 2024 Annual Safety Action Plan in the next few weeks.
