Announcements

Dear parents & community members,

We are at the mid-point of Term 2, with many exciting and rich learning experiences at the college. 

Year 10 students are engaging in their second round of Vocational Education and Training (VET) with a whole week of VET activities replacing usual classes between the 24 – 28 May.  Other VET classes continue as scheduled, including the hospitality students practising and showcasing their skills in the Desert Lantern Restaurant on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings during May and June. I encourage you to book a table and enjoy a three course dinner, while supporting our students’ learning.

Term 2 Work Completion reports have been posted home to families, so please speak with your young person and encourage the working behaviours that will see a positive result at the end of this semester

Centralian Senior College is proud to showcase the talents of our students on stage and behind the scenes with a production of Chicago High School Edition being performed on the 1st,, 4th and 5th June at 7:00pm in the Centralian College Theatrette. Tickets cost $5. Please purchase them via Eventbrite or at the door and join us to celebrate our students’ talent and enjoyment of the performing arts.

Hilary Snaize — Acting Principal
