Welcome Back to Term 3!

Dear Students, Parents, and Staff,

Welcome back to Term 3! We hope everyone had a restful and rejuvenating break. As we embark on this new term, we are filled with enthusiasm and anticipation for the significant milestones and exciting events ahead.

VCE Exams: A Time for Excellence

For our VCE students, this term marks a crucial period of preparation for the upcoming exams. It is a time to focus on achieving excellence, one of our core values. Remember, excellence is not just about academic success but also about giving your best effort and striving for improvement in all areas of life. We are confident that with dedication and hard work, you will rise to the occasion and achieve your goals.

The Wizard of Oz: A Magical Musical Journey

One of the highlights of Term 3 is the school musical, "The Wizard of Oz." This beloved classic promises to be a spectacular showcase of our students' talents in acting, singing, dancing, and production. It is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate acceptance and compassion, values that resonate deeply with the themes of the story. Let's support our performers and crew as they bring this magical tale to life on stage.

Subject Selection and 2025 Pathways: Charting Your Future

For many students, this term also brings the important task of finalising subject selection for the next academic year. This process is a pivotal moment in your educational journey, allowing you to explore your interests and passions. Our staff are here to guide and support you in making informed decisions that align with your goals and aspirations. Let’s embrace this opportunity with faith in ourselves and our potential.

Upholding Our Values

As we navigate through Term 3, let us keep our school values at the forefront of everything we do:

Faith: Believe in yourself, your peers, and the supportive community around you.

Acceptance: Embrace diversity and foster an inclusive environment where everyone feels valued.

Compassion: Show kindness and empathy to others, offering support and encouragement.

Excellence: Strive for personal bests in all endeavours, both academic and extracurricular.

We are excited about the journey ahead and look forward to witnessing the growth, achievements, and memories that Term 3 will bring. Let’s work together to make this term a positive, productive, and enriching experience for everyone.

Welcome back, and let's make Term 3 exceptional!

Warm regards,

Laura Ruddick
