The week that’s been
In these ever changing times, it is important that we continue to adhere to Covid safe practises. It is frightening to watch what our east coast counterparts are currently enduring. I thank you for your continued support of the School, by observing our requests to keep your son at home if they are sick, seek Covid testing if symptoms are shown and adhering to good hygiene practice.
2021 Prefect applications
All our boys are constantly presented with opportunities to develop important leadership skills and at times, given the chance to apply for various formal positions. Today I spoke with the Year 11 cohort about their opportunity to apply for the positions of House and School Prefects. The process of Prefect applications begins today and our Year 11s are encouraged to work with their Heads of House as they complete their applications.
School and House Prefects for 2021 are appointed in Term 4, where they will begin their duties and are assigned particular leadership portfolios. Over the course of Year 12 they work alongside assigned staff mentors implementing new initiatives and growing as young leaders. I wish all Year 11 applicants well as they participate in this process.
Safe arrival/departure on campus
I ask you to remind your son about personal safety should they ride to school. It is important that the boys dismount and walk their bikes onto campus and pay attention to their surroundings.
