Information Evening 2022
On Monday April 4, we will be holding our annual Information Evening for prospective 2023 students. It is an evening that we thoroughly enjoy as a college as it offers an opportunity for Newcomb Secondary College to showcase all that is great about the college to future students and their families.
Transition Program 2022
Over the course of Term 1, we have been fortunate enough to once again have an opportunity to welcome our feeder school students back into Newcomb Secondary College. This is a fantastic opportunity for those primary school students in grades 3-6 to share in our facilities, take part in our learning programs and experience life at a secondary school. It is priceless to see the rich learning in action and the wonderful smiles on the faces of the primary school students participating in the program. Thus far we have, or will have welcomed students from Newcomb Park, Leopold, Tate Street, and Whittington Primary Schools.
