A conversation with the Head of College Mr John Weeks

College Registration successfully completed Independent schools are inspected by the New South Wales Educational Standards Authority (NESA) to ensure compliance of educational programs, teacher registration, policies, procedures, governance, financial management, WH&S, facilities and a range of other issues which satisfy federal and state law. Scots All Saints re-registration inspection took place this week and the College was granted the maximum registration of a further five years. I wish to thank the staff of the College, teaching and non-teaching for the attention to detail in ensuring that the College is fully compliant in all areas of operation. Winter Holidays All students and staff have worked hard this term to ‘normalize operations’ after a very restrictive 2020. It’s been great to see our students involved in so many of the additional programs available whether this be in the sports, music, debating, cattle team, equestrian or outdoor education. Time for everyone to have a well-earned rest and refuel for next term. Year 12 Study Break The Winter break is a really important time for Year 12 students. There needs to be a balance between some holiday time but even more importantly catch up and preparation for the final term of schooling. Students undertaking major works or performance-based subjects must have these completed or performed by early August and the Trial Examinations, which contribute to final rankings begin in August as well. This holiday break is crucial for ultimate success at the HSC which begins in early Term 4. Mr Weeding, our Deputy Head, will be conducting important preparation seminars this Monday at the College to assist students in making the most of this three week period. I encourage all Year 12 students to be there! Until next term… Campus East (Scots) Senior School, Boarding (Years 9-12) 4173 O’Connell Road BATHURST NSW 2795
