Examinations

On Tuesday 17 June, many of our senior students sat the GAT. This formal assessment will form part of the moderation process for our students completing Unit 3 and 4 VCE subjects.

Over the month of June, our students have been busily preparing for and undertaking examinations across Years 8 to 11. We hope that all of our students were able to put their best foot forward and demonstrate their developed learning within their subjects.

ACC Sport

Congratulations to all our sporting teams, their coaches and support staff on making ACC year-level grand finals this week and last week. A wonderful achievement and congratulations to our ACC premiers and to all of our students for competing and representing the College this term. I am sure these games will provide fond memories of secondary school for many years to come. Good luck to our teams competing in grand finals this afternoon.

Push Up Challenge

As part of Men's Health Month, our College Captains are leading a Push-Up Challenge this coming Monday 30 June during morning Tutor Group time. The aim is to raise awareness for men’s mental health. The goal is to collectively complete 20,000 push-ups!

Students and staff are encouraged to make a gold coin donation to be able to wear casual clothes on this day. All funds raised will then go to our College Charity, The Good Samaritan Inn.

The student who completes the most push-ups for their House, in one sitting in TG on Monday morning, (one Lower and one Upper) will compete in a Push-Up Finale in early Term 3. Winners will earn house points towards the Treacy Cup.

We hope that all of our students and staff get behind this great cause to raise awareness for Men’s Mental Health.
