A Message from the Year 7 Leader of Wellbeing and Engagement
Madeleine Stoneman
It’s with great excitement that I officially welcome you to the CMCC community and introduce you to "The Nest", our fortnightly newsletter. This is your go-to source for key dates, essential information, and the latest highlights from our college life.
Allow me to introduce myself – I’m Madeleine Stoneman, the Acting Year 7 LOWE in James Moore’s absence. It's an absolute pleasure to be part of this wonderful community.
What a fantastic start our Year 7 students have had! From day one, they’ve demonstrated remarkable courage, strength, and hospitality as they’ve embraced the transition into College life at CMCC. A special shout-out is deserved by Aaron Mahony, Head of House for Wati, who has gone above and beyond to ensure our Year 7 students feel welcomed, supported, and excited about their high school journey.
Already, Year 7 have become immersed in College life, taking part in our Smoking Ceremony, the Opening Liturgy, and, of course, our heartfelt Year 7 Welcome Liturgy. It was truly special to see so many parents in attendance as we celebrated this milestone together. The Year 7’s have shown such respect, maturity, and reverence throughout these events, and it’s clear they’ve already embraced the spirit and culture of CMCC.
Academically, they’ve dived into their learning with enthusiasm, engaging in practical, hands-on experiences and showing a mature, inquisitive approach to every lesson. I’m incredibly excited to watch this remarkable group of students grow and achieve even more throughout the year!
Let’s make this year one to remember!
