The College will continue to provide relevant communication via Compass and we will try to communicate as soon as we can. Often the advice we receive from DET is late in the afternoon, therefore our communication will follow in due course.
It was pleasing to see the Year 11 and 12 students back on Friday, and I remind all students, parents and visitors that during this current climate masks are compulsory and must be worn at all times. Social distancing is once again required for staff and strongly encouraged by all students. Only necessary visitors are permitted at the school, so unless you have an appointment, please refrain from coming onto the school grounds. Remember if unwell, stay home.
Year 11 exams will continue this week with changes available on Compass. Year 10 exams will be scheduled for the week of 14th June but only if work experience is cancelled or delayed. We are committed to try and run the work experience but this decision will be determined by factors out of our control. Year 9 exams are also likely to proceed during the same week.
The GAT for students completing a 3/4 Unit has been postponed and will not run as initially scheduled for Wednesday, 9th June. It is my understanding that a new date for early Term 3 is most likely.
The pupil free day (Report Writing Day) scheduled for Friday, 11th June has also been postponed and will now take place on Monday, 21st June 2021.
During this blended approach of teaching, we will have some teachers working from school (if they teach Year 11 or Year 12) and most who must continue to work from home as per the advice from the Victorian Chief Health Officer. The school office will be open and partially staffed each day.
In positive news, just prior to the current lockdown, the Year 8 camp was able to proceed. By all reports from staff and students, the camp was a great success. The Year 8 students had a great time and conducted themselves well. We thank the staff at the camp site - Lady Northcote, our Rosehill staff and families for making this camp a reality for our children this year.
