Our school is proud to once again participate in the Leukaemia Foundation's 'World’s Greatest Shave' on Friday 14th March 2025 as our major fundraiser for Term 1. This is a fundraiser to aid research into a cure for blood cancers, including the diseases of Leukaemia, Lymphomas and Myeloma and providing support for patients and families. This is the 26th year our school has participated in this fundraiser, and we are one of the only schools who has participated in every one of the World’s Greatest Shaves since it's inception. This was started by our Student Council in 2000 in memory of former student and friend Peter Cook who passed away from Acute Myeloid Leukaemia in Year 11. Last year we raised more than $13,600. This year we are aiming to raise more than $10,000 once again.

Our school will be participating in Funky Hair Friday where students come to school with funky hair or have their hair coloured by our Student Council in the Luke Complex as part of the World’s Greatest Shave.

Donations can be made in Care Groups, in donation boxes at our canteen and Administration Office, or you can donate online at:

A tax deductable receipt is also available. We will be holding a sausage sizzle fundraiser at our Swimming Carnival this Friday and another on Shave Day to help raise funds. Look out for announcements about other fundraising activities to occur. Our school recycling program 'Containers for Change' will be contributing funds from the collection of bottles, cans and tetra packs this year again as well.

Remember if each student donates $5 we will raise approximately $6,000 to help research into blood cancers and support those people and their families during their treatment and fight against these diseases. We would love to beat our target and remember every little bit helps.

eLearning

Our next CYOD order will be placed at the end of February. Order information can be found on our school website along with the order form under the tab Curriculum/eLearning. Order forms and deposit are due at the Administration Office by Friday, 7 March 2025.

Year 7 CYOD Round 1 orders have started to be distributed this week. For a Year 7 CYOD student to be issued their device, full payment must be received prior to issue. Students should listen to morning notices for these arrangements.

A reminder that students in our BYOD eLearning program will need to return their BYOD agreement form to our Administration Office so they can be reconnected to the network, internet and printers. Students should be able to connect one to two days after forms and payment have been received by the office. Students will need to download the ‘Intune’ program at home prior to connection. This will allow the BYOD device access to our school Wi-Fi and the resources it provides. Instructions on this process can be found at our Resource Centre or on our school website.
