In the Under 14s girls we had Ruby Lancaster and Mia Colaco. They too had a great tournament placing 6th in Australia.
On Wednesday afternoon Peer Tutoring started for another year in the library. We had 46 Junior students and 18 Seniors attend this week. This year students are working in their House Groups. It is a fantastic way for the students to make positive connections and really get to know the Senior students from their House.
Some of the main areas students were getting help with this week was practising operations with integers, structuring and planning narratives and writing a bibliography properly. It was fantastic to see so many students prepared with questions and really engaged in the afternoon.
If there are any other Year 7 or Year 8 students interested in the program, feel free to see me for a permission note. Looking forward to week 2!

Yesterday Michael Maguire, NRL premiership-winning coach, motivational speaker and ambassador for Caritas Australia gave an informative, motivating and inspiring presentation during our College assembly. Michael was joined by Sr Ivy Khoury (Program Coordinator for Africa) and Cathy Hammond (Community Participation Leader). Michael spoke passionately of his recent visit to Zimbabwe in Africa, raising awareness of the millions of people who are sick and displaced, and how donations are being effectively used to improve the quality of life for these communities. The provision of wells and access to water allows communities to become self-sufficient through growing and selling food, which allows young Africans access to education.
Following the assembly, Michael had morning tea with our College leaders and spoke about how successful leadership can generate high performance and positive changes within the community.
Michael commended the College for our fundraising efforts in 2017 and encouraged us to continue to look out for and assist those who are less fortunate.
During Assembly on Thursday 1 March, Mrs Christina Trimble, Regional Consultant for Southern Region Schools, presented the College with a plaque acknowledging the work of the College in supporting the Performing Arts. Only one primary and one secondary school in the Southern Region have been selected for this honour. Congratulations to all staff and students who have been involved and are currently involved in CaSPA.
On that note, congratulations to Allison Vandam, Sofia Sheedy, Sian Fuller and Jordan Fuller who have been accepted into the 2018 CaSPA Student Ensemble.
Also during our Assembly on Thursday 1 March, Mrs Christina Trimble, Regional Consultant for Southern Region Schools, presented the College with a Newman Accreditation Certificate.
