Mr Dino Arraiol - Head of School Community and Wellbeing MSS
Dear Parents and Carers,
To conclude the term, students are invited to participate in a free dress day with a “Crazy Hair” theme, with a gold coin donation. All funds raised will go directly towards supporting our Compassion child project. This provides a meaningful opportunity for our students to contribute to a cause beyond themselves and reflect the values of service and generosity within our College community.
The final day of term will also be dedicated to a structured Student Enrichment and Pastoral Program. This day has been intentionally designed to align with the College’s curriculum priorities while supporting students’ personal, social, and emotional development. We ask that all students attend and that the day is not treated as optional, as each activity is purposeful and forms an important part of the educational experience. Years 10–12 will participate in leadership and personal development sessions facilitated by external providers, Character Builders; Year 9 students will engage in a life skills program alongside further components of The Rite Journey; and Stage 4 students will take part in various activities linked to their HASS unit.
Free Dress
Students in the Middle and Senior School will be able to wear Free Dress on Wednesday 1 April 2026 for a gold coin donation. The theme of our Free Dress is Crazy Hair, and we invite students to express themselves with unique hairstyles; however, permanent colour changes that do not meet College guidelines should be avoided. All proceeds will be directed to our sponsor children through Compassion International. Please note that students wearing Free Dress will be required to meet the College’s Free Dress Guidelines (see below for further details).
Student Connector Event – Tuesday 31 March 2026
The Student Connectors are a formal student leadership group within the Middle and Senior School, contributing to College life through service and community-building initiatives. On Tuesday 31 March, the Student Connector team will host a Mini Carnival during second break in the Western Car Park. The event will include food, games, music, and an Easter bonnet parade with prizes. Students are encouraged to attend and enjoy this opportunity to connect with others.
Parent Teacher Student Interviews (PTSI)
Our PTSI are scheduled for Tuesday 28th of April (second week of next term). The booking link to interviews will be made available next week and remain open until Sunday 26th of April.
By the end of term (at the latest end of next week) you will find a range of results and feedback available on Parent Lounge related to how your child is progressing in each of their subjects. To access this information via the app, follow these steps:
- Click on the hamburger menu at the top left, scroll down and choose Parent Lounge.
- In Parent Lounge select the Student Details tab (second option horizontal heading), and select Curricular Activities.
It is worth reviewing your child’s progress on a termly basis and reaching out to teachers if you are concerned about how your child is travelling in a particular subject area.
Uniform Expectations – Term 2 Reminder
