What a fantastic start we have had to Term 2! Such beautiful weather with the emerging autumnal colours of winter throughout the city a sight to behold. Please note the reminders below to ensure the term runs smoothly.

Uniform

All students are reminded of the uniform expectations of winter uniform in Term 2 and 3.

• Blazer is to be worn to and from school, and is required each Monday for Chapel at the Cathedral

• Full winter uniforms, either uniform A or B, including ties

• School socks or tights are to be worn

• PE uniform can be worn to school if PE class occurs in Period 1 or 2

• PE uniform can be worn home if PE class occurs in Period 5 or 6

• PE uniform is not to be worn at any other time, except with the express permission of a member of the Senior Executive Team.

• Clean and polished leather shoe

• Neat and tidy haircut

Co-Curricular

This week saw the re-commencement of Co-Curricular activities for Term 2. We are pleased to be able to offer such a broad array of truly diverse range of clubs for our students to enjoy.

• Co-Curricular activities run from Week 2 to Week 8 of each term

• If a student is absent for the whole school day, we will assume that they will also be absent for their Co-Curricular activity

• If a student is at school but unable to make it to their CoCurricular activity, please notify student reception at studentreception@stgeorges.wa.edu.au

Homework Help is a very important co-curricular option for many students. Whilst this is an activity that they can sign up for as part of their co-curricular load and attend each week, it can also be attended on an ad hoc basis for any students in need of academic support and/or guidance. Students are encouraged to make use of Homework Help, especially in the lead up to assessments and examinations, as there are specialist teachers available to help at the point of need. It is also a safe and quiet place for students to begin their homework tasks immediately after school. I look forward to seeing Homework Help buzzing with energy for the whole of Term Two.

Classroom Cleanliness

Students are reminded that all members of the school community are responsible for keeping our classrooms and common areas tidy. The graphic below is a gentle reminder of the checks each student should make prior to leaving a class. By working together we can make sure our school is a tidy and vibrant place for everyone to learn and grow.
