A Message from the Assistant Principal
Claudette Stace
Welcome back to Term 2. We have an exciting term ahead with so many wonderful opportunities for our McAuley Eagles both in and out of the classroom. I encourage all students to get involved, be active and curious learners in the classroom and active participants in the life of the college.
Attendance Matters
School attendance plays a critical role in enhancing the lives of students in schools. Every day of attendance adds to a student’s academic and social achievements at school, and conversely every absence, can impact their learning and progress.
To encourage our students to increase their attendance rate we are introducing a prize for 100% attendance that will be on offer each term. At the end of term House celebrations students in each year group will go into the draw with their peers to receive a JB Hi-Fi gift voucher to the value of $50.
You’ve got to be in it to win it!
