After 18 days in Europe marketing the College and Hostel to companies recruiting international fee paying students, I am pleased to back in the College. My trip involved meeting with over 26 agents in order to establishing agreements for students wishing to join the school community and have a boarding experience.
On Monday, I attended the Mackenzie Highland Show in Fairlie, marketing the hostel to the Mackenzie basin. It was pleasing to be able to reconnect with so many past pupils from the district. I was able to bring them up to date with developments at the College and enjoyed hearing about their own academic achievements and career prospects.
At this weeks Board of Trustees meeting, the Board has taken on the community feedback from the turf proposals and has approve the modified option. The significant additional cost will require the use of Policy One reserves. I am pleased with the result and thank all those who took the time and effort to have their say, as we have a significantly better outcome for our community.
This weekend we have the Southern Catholic Secondary Schools' Senior Sports Tournament being held at St Peter's in Gore. I wish everyone safe travel and a hard but fair tournament.
Finally, please keep Mrs Leong Son in you prays as her father passed away over Easter.
May God bless you all
Paul Olsen, Principal
