Students have returned to Term 3 with renewed energy, excitement and anticipation for learning after a three-week break. For many, the first few weeks will be a time of discernment as they decide on subject choices for next year and consider future pathways. We are very grateful to our teaching staff and the Careers Office for their exceptional support of students and parents throughout this process.
Our 2024 College Theme, With Courage, Wisdom and Joy is reflected in many student accomplishments in a range of areas that contribute to their full flourishing as individuals.
Year 10 students, Victoria C, Felicity H and Ciara W have been offered places in the Monash Scholars Class of 2024 to 2026. This prestigious program brings together students from across the state, offering them opportunities to build valuable social networks that will support them through their final years of school and into university.
Congratulations to Year 7 student, Bella F who travelled to New Zealand with the Australian Children’s Choir for the World Choir Games and received a silver medal for their outstanding performance.
We also congratulate Carla Morel (Class of 2023) on receiving a Premier's VCE Award for her outstanding achievement in Art Creative Practice last year. The annual Premier's VCE Awards recognise the top performing students in the state. Carla continues to pursue her love of art at Monash University where she is doing a double degree in a Bachelor of Business and Design.
Forty very energetic 91pron students participated in the 2024 FISAF Australia State Aerobic Championships in June. There were wonderful team and individual achievements, and we are incredibly proud of all participants. Best wishes to the four teams advancing to the National Championships in Term 3!
We celebrate St Dominic’s Day as a community with Mass at St Dominic’s Church on 1 August. This is a time to gather, reflect and give thanks for the legacy of St Dominic and all who have followed in his footsteps.
May God the Father bless us.
May God the Son heal us.
May God the Holy Spirit enlighten us,
and give us
eyes to see with,
ears to hear with,
hands to do the work of God with,
feet to walk with,
a mouth to preach the word of salvation with,
and the angel of peace to watch over us and lead us at last,
by our Lord's gift, to the Kingdom.
Amen.
