Work on the Science Block and the Library Suite has continued through the holidays with a flurry of tradespeople on site to provide the students of the College with high quality facilities. We look forward to the completion of this work early in the term.

Technical Overhaul

Thank you - Kiri Powell

Shakespeare In 20 Minutes

Launching into Activities Week, Monday saw our Year 9 students take to the stage recreating the dramatics of Shakespeare in the 20 minute play "A Midsummer Night's Dream". Directed by Mrs Mary Haig the cast from Year 9 Drama brought to life this romantic comedy.

Refurbishment Update

Safety barriers and scaffolding ... a sure sign that work on the refurbishment of the Science Block and College Library is well under way. Staff and students have been busy clearing rooms ready for trade people to come and make their final preparations, and in the case of the Library to actually start painting. The work will continue over the summer holidays ready for the new school year.

On Thursday at 2pm, the remaining student body assembled to observe two minutes silence at a memorial service. The grotto was a fitting location to reflect on the tragedy with prayers, poetry and an a lament played by Mr Olsen.
