Announcements

Dear parents & community members,

On the 29th October we celebrated World Teachers’ Day and acknowledged the expertise and efforts of all our staff. Our college nominated Mrs Eunice De Kock for the secondary teacher of the year award and she was the Central Regional winner. Congratulations to Mrs De Kock!

Centralian Senior College invites all families, students and staff to join us for an evening of entertainments and enjoyment of our vibrant arts program at the 2021 Twilight Festival on 18 November from 6 - 8pm. A family favourite, come along and    enjoy some music, art and food on the front lawns.

The last Year 12 exams took place this week and finals tasks are still being completed. The Year 11 classes are undergoing moderation of all subjects and students and staff are working hard to finish the year strongly. The year 10s have just completed another VET block week to grow their skills and gain competencies. They are working to complete their PLP, the first subject in the pattern to completing their NTCET.

As we approach the end of the school year, there are many events coming up to celebrate and recognise all the hard work completed by students, including the 2021 Awards Evening and Year 12 students formal.

Regards,

Hilary Snaize — Acting Principal
