BOOK WEEK 2026

We are getting excited for Book Week (24-28 August)! Primary and Secondary families have been sent an email with all the details about Book Week 2026, including Book Parades on Friday 28 August - we can't wait to see all our students and staff in Book Day costumes! If you didn't receive this email, please click the links below:


PREMIER'S READING CHALLENGE

The Premier’s Reading Challenge (PRC) is a fantastic state-wide initiative designed to foster a lifelong love of reading for leisure and pleasure in our students. It’s not a competition; rather, it’s a personal goal that encourages children to read more, explore new genres, and experience quality literature. Regular reading improves literacy, expands vocabulary, boosts focus, and strengthens creative thinking. Taking part gives students a real sense of accomplishment as they track their progress throughout the year.

Students have been provided with login details - if you need these provided again, please contact the Library or your child's class teacher. Once you have logged in, you can start adding all the books your child has read.

PARKING & TRAFFIC SAFETY REMINDER

The safety of our students, families and staff is a shared responsibility, as a result, the College would like to remind all families to help us keep our campus safe during busy drop-off and pick-up times.

Please ensure you:

  • Observe the 10 km/h speed limit once you enter the College grounds.

  • Only drop off and pick up students in designated areas (please do not drop off or collect students along the A Block Carpark).

  • Avoid stopping or parking in roadways or areas that may obstruct traffic or create unsafe conditions for pedestrians and other vehicles.

By following these simple guidelines, we can help keep traffic flowing smoothly and ensure a safe environment for everyone in our College community.

Thank you for your continued cooperation and support.
