Ashley O'Dowd
Junior Sub School Coordinator
The Junior Sub School Team would like to wish our Year 7 Coordinator, Mrs. Janelle Butler, all the very best as she begins her maternity leave. We thank Janelle for her dedication and support of our students and look forward to welcoming her back later this year. As Janelle begins her leave, we are pleased to welcome Mr. James Cown-Clark, who will be taking on the role of Year 7 Coordinator. We are excited to have James join the Junior Sub School Team and students and families can be assured that they will continue to receive the same high level of care, support and guidance throughout this transition.
It has been a busy and exciting few weeks in the Junior Sub School, with many students representing the College in a range of junior interschool sports. Congratulations to all students who participated and demonstrated great teamwork, sportsmanship, and school pride.
A reminder that exams will take place in Week 7. All Year 7 and 8 students will complete a Mathematics and English exam, while SEAL students will also complete Science and Humanities exams. Students and families are encouraged to regularly check Compass for revision materials and tasks to be completed at home in preparation.
As always, we appreciate the support of families in reinforcing our college expectations. In particular, we ask students to remember:
