Staff Professional Learning and Pupil Free Days
Last week staff at Newcomb Secondary College participated in a whole school professional learning experience, focusing on the Berry Street Educational Model.
We wish to thank everyone for your understanding and support of this professional learning by all staff at Newcomb SC.
Year 11 to 12 Orientation
The seats in the Year 12 common area barely had time to cool. Less than a week after the last exam for the Class of 2021, the Class of 2022 had commenced their Year 12 studies and eagerly taken the seats of their predecessors.
Whilst both teachers and students are tired and eager for the holidays, there has been an upbeat approach to the new Year 12 classes. Classes are using this time to tick off a few of the Key Knowledge points of the first Area of Study or to inform students as to the options where they exist in the study design so a decision can be reached before the end of year break commences.
A great start for the Class of 2022!
The Junior Music Camp
The Junior Music Camp is finally happening this week at Angahook Holiday Camp. We wish everyone well and to enjoy their time.
College Council
The November meeting of the Newcomb Secondary College Council took place last Thursday evening in the Food Technology area. Among the items discussed were our planning for 2022, securing uniform supplies and the latest COVID guides.
