In the summer holidays, just before students being their 1st Year in St. Dominic's College, our School Completion Team will arrange for a number of induction days for the 1st Years. The aim will be for them to get to know their new classmates. get familiar with the school layout and have fun! We wrap up these days with a family barbecue for all our new 1st Years and their families, which is always a real highlight of the initial induction process.
