Year 10 and 11 students are also approaching various assessment deadlines. During this time, it can sometimes be easy for students to feel overwhelmed. It’s important for students to know that support is available to them from PCG teachers, class teachers, Heads of House and the Heads of Learning. I encourage students to actively connect with these staff who are always happy to help where they can, to offer advice and encouragement. We wish all students all the very best in their studies for the rest of the term. Students results and goals will be discussed over the next few weeks and early in Term 2 with PCG teachers, when they engage in Care Conversations. Care Conversations are a valuable opportunity for all students to be a part of in order to identify areas for growth and celebrate achievements.
At this point in the year, it is important for Year 11 students to start thinking about how they are going to be more active leaders within the school. Students have each been given a leadership reflection document to consider their talents and abilities and how they can best utilise those skills. I have already been impressed with a number of students who have started to show initiatives of their own in volunteering to help in various areas of the college, assisting others and how they interact with one other. I am looking forward to seeing them excel in their two leadership days with the LYQ facilitators in Term 2 and Term 3.
International Women’s Day Breakfast
The International Women’s Day breakfast is on this Friday. I encourage all to come along to celebrate the wonderful gift we have in our sisters, mothers, wives, grandparents and other significant women in our lives. I hope to see you all there.
