I am excited to be back on deck as the Leader of Wellbeing and Engagement after my time on paternity leave. I would like to thank Mrs Stoneman, who took great care of Year 7 in my absence. Her dedication and support ensured a smooth start to the year for our students, and I truly appreciate her efforts.

It has been wonderful to see the Year 7 students settling in, embracing new challenges, and forming strong connections within our school community. Their enthusiasm and resilience have been evident, and I look forward to seeing their continued success as the year progresses.

I would like to thank and congratulate the students for the responsible way they approached NAPLAN. They conducted themselves with maturity and focus, ensuring a smooth and successful assessment process. It was great to see their commitment to doing their best, and I encourage them to use this experience as a learning opportunity for future growth.

In the coming weeks during LEA time, we will continue to focus on the value of Belonging and what it truly means to be part of a supportive and inclusive community. At CMCC, we strive to create an environment where every student feels valued, accepted, and connected. Through discussions and activities, students will explore how small acts of kindness, empathy, and understanding can strengthen their relationships with others. By embracing this value, we continue to build a culture of respect and care, ensuring that everyone has a place where they feel they belong.

Reminder: Vaccinations will be taking place on Friday, 28th March. Please ensure you log into compass and provide consent where required.

Lastly some exciting news about camp! Year 7 students will have the exciting opportunity to attend The Great Aussie Bush Camp in Term 2, Week 2, from Wednesday, 7th May to Friday, 9th May 2025. This camp is a fantastic chance for students to build resilience, strengthen friendships, and challenge themselves in a fun and supportive environment. Students will depart at 9:00 am on Wednesday from CMCC and return in time for normal buses on Friday afternoon.

More information, including packing lists and consent details, will be distributed in the coming weeks.

I look forward to working with the students and families of Year 7 so please don’t hesitate to reach out if you require support: james.moore@mn.catholic.edu.au
