One of the most important ingredients to a successful partnership is good communication. It is therefore with confidence that I commend the contents of this package of information to you.

The following is included in this 2022 information package:

• Statement of Re-Enrolment Understanding and 2022 Re-Enrolment Agreement Form

• Tuition Fee Information

• Payment Authority Form

• Family Discount Application

• User Agreement – Apple Device

Due to the Covid-19 situation and strong financial management, the Board decided to maintain the Tuition Fee and the Student Levy. The Board acknowledges many efficiencies within the College and great care is taken in maintaining the affordability of your son’s education. The introduction of a Capital Levy of $350 is included in the fee structure.

A family discount applies when you have one or more other children at a secondary Catholic school.

It would be easy to focus on the fees component and, as important as that is to the operation of the College, there is information here to help clarify and support the good functioning of the 2022 school year. Please take the time to pay attention to all the important facts about the year ahead.

At the same time, I ask you to respond in a timely fashion to all the other sections that require a signature and a response from you, such as the photo and excursion permission forms. Prompt completion and return of these forms (by Thursday 2 December 2021) will save the College a lot of time and money in administration. Information collected on these forms is in accordance with our Privacy and Collection policies available on the College website.

So, what will 2022 offer?

You can look forward to opportunities for rich student learning under the tutelage of dedicated teachers. There will be an excursion and camps program, extra curricula activities like music, outdoor education and overseas curriculum trips. There will be a sports program which is the envy of many schools, access to vocational programs and extra support for all learners through study sessions in Chieri or classes in the Occhiena Centre as well as increased challenges for gifted and talented students.

In short, there will be many opportunities for your son to grow into a fine man, to find his passion and to discover his pathway.

All he has to do is get involved and do his best.

For Year 8 students there will be a chance to build on the foundations of their entry to Secondary School, to experience the Four Seasons Program and really advance their learning, confident that after Year 7 they better understand their own learning preferences.

The College introduced a new uniform in 2019 and all students are expected to be in the full uniform from the start of 2022. The College Uniform Expectations are included in the Information Pack.

I ask that all those who support your son encourage him to strive for new heights in 2022. If we all do that and his answer to our invitation is a resounding YES, then it will be a great year!

Yours sincerely,

Cathy Livingston

Principal
