Volume 28 Issue 13 - 26 August 2016

From the Principal

Last week we said farewell to Mr Charles Lincoln. Mr Lincoln has taught at the College for 30 years and after this long and committed act of service has decided to resign to provide support to his family. Many of our parents have been taught by Mr Lincoln and will reflect fondly of his desire to provide an engaging and interesting lesson in the Science lab. Over the years Mr Lincoln has taught Science, Maths, Religion, Italian and Outdoor Education. He will be sorely missed but we wish him the very best as he moves into some other exciting fields.

 

 

Recently the Campbelltown Catholic Club held their communion mass and luncheon. Once again all the local Catholic schools received a donation from the club for individual projects. We are very fortunate to have this wonderful support from the Catholic Club and I extend my sincere appreciation. The glass doors in Westview were funded by the Catholic Club and P&F money donated last year.

Last week we held the P&F AGM. I would like to thank Jodie Stuart for her role as President over the years. Jodie has stepped down after almost 13 years on the P&F. The following positions have been filled and I am very grateful to these parents for their generous support. They will hold their positions until Term 1 2017 and then we will hold another meeting to fill the positions.
President:         Denise Egan
Vice President: Monique Keogh
Secretary:          Liz Henson
Treasurer:         George Gatt

We will have an Alumni AGM on Wednesday 7 September 2016. The outgoing committee have made a tremendous contribution to the Alumni and now it is time to pass on the baton. I encourage you to attend the meeting at 7.00pm in the Benedict Centre. 

We will also host a Senior School Parent Forum on Tuesday 30 August at 9.00am and again at 7.00pm in the evening. All events will be hosted in the Benedict Centre. I encourage you to attend. The forums normally only take an hour and there will be some refreshments for all attendees.

Finally, congratulations also to Ms Dunn who was successful in securing a prestigious Premier’s Teacher Scholarship for 2017. Ms Dunn will conduct her research next year over a few weeks overseas. We are delighted that Ms Dunn has been acknowledged in this way.

Blessings
Sue Lennox
