Farewell Year 12 cohort
Year 12 Boarding Farewell Dinner
Surf Life Saving program turns 21
Free Hockey clinic in Bunbury
House Rowing Regatta this Sunday

This week marked the start of the farewell for our Year 12 cohort. Tuesday saw the students enjoy an off-campus morning of fun, and today we held the Assembly in Honour of Year 12 where we announced Dux of School, Joshua Chen, our Non-ATAR Excellence Award winner Thomas Read, and all of our Year 12 prize-winners. Congratulations to all of the boys who have given so much to the School during their journey. It is a time marked with sadness and excitement as the boys look towards exams and the next phase of their lives. The full list of prize-winners can be found here. The celebrations continue this evening with our Valedictory Chapel Service and Dinner.

This morning Captain of School and Vice-Captain of School 2023 were announced – congratulations to Luke Annear and Eddie Vijayasekaran respectively, and we look forward to your leadership next year.

On Tuesday evening the Senior School Art Exhibition was held with large numbers in attendance. I am delighted to share with you the prize winners and congratulate all entrants and winners for their outstanding work.

Last night was the Year 12 Boarding Farewell Dinner which was a lovely celebration of our boarders and the community that has surrounded them during their Christ Church journey. It was also a momentous occasion for Brad Downing who will conclude his time as Director of Boarding at the end of this year, with Todd Harnwell commencing as Director in 2023. Photos from the evening can be viewed on Nexus.

This week’s beautiful weather was enjoyed by a couple of our Year 5 classes who visited Kooringal. Our Outdoor Education program develops character and skills in the boys through promotion of self-reliance, leadership, teamwork, responsibility, healthy risk taking and environmental care. Some photos of the visits can be found here.

Tomorrow I am looking forward to attending an event for our Surf Life Savings Cadet Unit, as this year we celebrate 21 years of our students’ commitment to the surf movement. This program commenced at the Swanbourne SLSC in the early 2000s and then moved to the North Cottesloe SLSC two years later. This program has so many benefits including the development of cardiovascular fitness and endurance, overall body strength and of course the provision of service to the broader community – something that we encourage with all students.

The School is running a free Hockey Clinic in Bunbury on 13 November. We are fortunate to have Eddie Ockenden leading the clinic. Eddie coached our Firsts Hockey team and is one of three people in the world to have played 400 international hockey games. Together with a number of students and staff we will be on the Bunbury Hockey Turf and running this free community clinic for local hockey enthusiasts. If you are in the area and would like to call in, the clinic runs from 9.00am to 12.00pm. Details can be found here.

This Sunday we have our annual Rowing House Regatta at the River Precinct. Commencing at 8.30am this event includes the House Eights, Challenge Eights, Combined Quad, the 2022 Awards and the announcement of the 2023 group. I look forward to seeing parents and boys on the foreshore for this fun event.

Sun Protection for Our Swimming Carnivals

With our upcoming swimming carnivals, families are reminded of the importance of ensuring boys are well protected from the sun throughout the day. Swimming carnivals involve extended periods outdoors and around the pool, making good sun protection particularly important.

We ask that all boys apply sunscreen at home before arriving at school on the morning of their carnival. This provides an important first layer of protection before the day’s activities begin.

While we provide shade to the best of our ability, we recognise the importance of additional sun-protection measures throughout the day. The message of sun protection will be factored into the carnival timetable, providing boys with an opportunity to reapply sunscreen. Staff will also have sunscreen available for boys to use for reapplication as required and will remind and encourage them to make good use of these opportunities.

Thank you for helping us reinforce positive sun-safe habits and ensuring our boys can enjoy a fun, active and safe day at the pool.

Pre-Primary to Year 2 ELC Swimming Carnival

The annual Pre-Primary to Year 2 Swimming Carnival will take place on Monday 9 November in the school pool from 9.00am. All boys from Pre-Primary to Year 2 are expected to participate in this event.

We love having parents come along to cheer on the boys! We kindly ask that you remain in the spectator areas rather than coming over to where the boys are sitting. This helps the boys stay focused and allows teachers to supervise safely. Thank you for your understanding and support.

Year 1 2027 transition event

While the transition to Year 1 is an exciting time for our Pre-Primary boys and families, it can also be a challenge for our 5 and 6 year olds. They need to adjust to new environments and expectations, different teachers, more freedom and choice at break times, and to navigate new and old friendships.

As a part of our transition program, we would like to invite all Pre-Primary parents to a morning with the 2027 Year 1 teachers and myself. This will be an informal get together for you to ask questions and seek clarification on topics relating to the progression of Pre-Primary boys to Year 1 at Christ Church.

If you have particular questions or concerns that you would like us to cover, please send these through to cwiddicombe@ccgs.wa.edu.au and we will be able to answer them as best we can.

Date: Thursday 12 November
Time: 9.00am to 9.45am

Sun Protection for Our Swimming Carnivals

With our upcoming swimming carnivals, families are reminded of the importance of ensuring boys are well protected from the sun throughout the day. Swimming carnivals involve extended periods outdoors and around the pool, making good sun protection particularly important.

We ask that all boys apply sunscreen at home before arriving at school on the morning of their carnival. This provides an important first layer of protection before the day’s activities begin.

While we provide shade to the best of our ability, we recognise the importance of additional sun-protection measures throughout the day. The message of sun protection will be factored into the carnival timetable, providing boys with an opportunity to reapply sunscreen. Staff will also have sunscreen available for boys to use for reapplication as required and will remind and encourage them to make good use of these opportunities.

Thank you for helping us reinforce positive sun-safe habits and ensuring our boys can enjoy a fun, active and safe day at the pool.

As we approach the end of the term, students have the opportunity to order a new AFL guernsey if they require a larger size for 2027. Orders must be submitted prior to the end of Term 3.

The Uniform Shop is offering a Buy Back Scheme – return the original top (clean with no tears or stains) and receive a credit of $50.00 against the new top, resulting in a balance of $37.00 to be paid.

NOTE: It is important to be mindful that the school tries to give every boy a different number in their year playing group. If you have been given a pre-loved top from another student who may have changed sports or from an older sibling. Please notify the shop to avoid doubling up on numbers.

Year 12 Final Transcript of Results

Parents are advised that final transcripts of academic results are available for download in Nexus. This document includes a final predicted ATAR for eligible students.

Personalised ATAR examination timetables

Year 12 boys are required to log into the SCSA Student Portal and download their personalised ATAR examination timetables. Here are some important points to note:
- This is the ‘ticket’ into every ATAR exam, along with valid photo ID, so it is very important.
- This needs to be checked carefully. If there is an exam listed and your son has dropped that subject, if your son’s name is spelt incorrectly, or if any other detail is wrong, please inform the Studies Office.
- Students need to sign it and bring it to every ATAR exam.
- Students need to check their timetable online the night before each exam.
Year 12 ATAR Examinations

Students enrolled in Year 12 ATAR courses are required to sit the Authority’s examinations in those courses. Students who do not complete the examination will not be considered to have completed the course; the course will not be counted for any element of the WACE, nor will the pair of units for the Year 12 course appear on the student’s West Australian Statement of Student Achievement.

Early Offers

This year, the five universities have agreed that there will be two early offer rounds to Year 12 students for 2027 admission:
- Monday 5 October
- Wednesday 2 December
Early offers are only made to a student’s first TISC preference, unlike the main and second round of offers where all preferences are considered. We recommend students pay for their application at least two weeks before an early offer date to ensure their application can be assessed for an early offer. Most early offers will be conditional, so students should carefully read their offer letter so that they know what is required. Students should also be aware that not all courses are available for early offers. Generally, courses with high demand/limited places, and university enabling programs do not make early offers, but for specific lists of courses excluded from early offers, check the university websites. Early offers will continue to be made based on final Year 11 results, as it is not feasible to use mid-year Year 12 results. Accepting an early offer will not “lock” a student’s TISC application in the way that accepting a main round offer does – they are still able to change their preferences. However, in some cases, the university may specify a condition that the course preference remain the student’s first preference for the early offer to remain valid; if in doubt, the student should contact the university that has made the offer.

Access to the Nexus after 2026

We would like to advise parents that access to academic records on Nexus will cease towards the end of this year. We would therefore recommend that parents and boys take this opportunity to download and save copies of previous school reports and other records for future use.

University Applications through TISC

Applications through TISC for Semester 1 2027 admission will open on Tuesday 2 June 2026. Students applying through TISC will automatically be considered for an early offer for their first preference if that course makes early offers. There is no need to complete any separate or additional procedures to be considered for early offers. There will be two Year 12 Early Offer rounds this year. The first early offer round will be released on Monday 5 October 2026 and the second and final early offer round will be released on Wednesday 2 December.

Students will need these instructions to get started with their online application to TISC.

Two-Factor Authentication: For added security, two-factor authentication is required when using TISCOnline. To avoid being locked out of accounts, it is recommending students register for both available verification methods: an authenticator application and SMS. An authenticator app to generate the verification codes, and SMS to a mobile to receive the codes.
