It is hard to believe that we are now in Term 4, with lovely warm weather and longer days to enjoy.
The Year 8 students, after having had a restful break, have embraced the start of Term 4 with energy and enthusiasm. It has been pleasing to hear the overall positive feedback from teachers about the students' motivation for learning and their hard-working attitude.
With seven weeks still to go until the end of the school year, I encourage all Year 8 students to continue striving to reach goals, improve their individual grades and to abide by the OLMC expectations and values.
I would like to congratulate the many students who have achieved success at the National Aerobics competition, DAV and Maths competitions, have had work selected for the Design, Art and Technology Show and have been selected for the Junior GSV Basketball teams for Term 4. Students should be proud of these achievements.
With the beautiful warm weather students need to be wearing the correct summer uniform by Monday 21 October. Many students have grown since Term 1, therefore their summer dress may need to be lengthened, so it is at an appropriate length. Also, a reminder that the burgundy jumper can not be worn as the outer garment when arriving or departing school.
The Year 8 Pastoral team would like to thank all parents and guardians for their ongoing support with the Year 8 students' education at OLMC.
