SENIOR COLLEGE
WHERE YOUR FUTURE BEGINS
PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE
Principal’s Message
As the College year draws to a close, I would like wish you all a Merry Christmas and a safe and happy festive
season. The year has ended with an outstanding Year 12 Presentation Night with a new format. The event
started at the College with an afternoon tea and an opportunity for families to meet and mingle. Professional
photos were also taken at the College. The formal part of the night was then held at Quinns Baptist College
where awards were presented. I look forward to welcoming the new Year 11 students and the returning
Year 12 students in 2020 and supporting them in achieving to the very best of their ability and to successfully
complete their final years of compulsory secondary schooling.

WORKPLACE LEARNING IN 2020
Workplace Learning commences on Wednesday, 4 March (week 5) 2020. Students will be given information
relating to their work placement during the first few weeks of Term 1.
There will be a half day compulsory induction program for students new to Workplace Learning and this will occur
on Wednesday, 26 February 2020.
More information relating to this will be given to students in the second week of Term 1.
EXTERNAL VET COURSE IN 2020
Students who have been accepted into an External VET (Certificate) course in 2020 should receive a course
outline from the Training Provider delivering the VET program.
This information should be sent to the students between now and the start of the 2020 College year. Not all
Training Providers follow the same process and therefore if students do not receive the program information, it will
be given to them in the first week of Term 1, 2020.
The majority of external courses will commence in the second week of Term 1 and Mrs Tracey Loughnan will meet
with all of the External VET students concerned during the first week back at the College next year to ensure they
have all the required information.
SAFETY AWARENESS TRAINING (WHITECARD)
Students completing Workplace Learning in the Building and Construction and associated industries will be
required to gain the ‘White Card’ (Safety Awareness Training) prior to their work placement commencing on
Wednesday, 4 March.
The College will provide a workshop on either Tuesday, 18 February or Thursday, 20 February for students to
complete this unit. The parents of students who require the ‘White Card’ will be sent an email in the first week of
Term 1 explaining the process.
