Years 3-6 Athletics Carnival

The Lavalla Athletics Carnival will be held on Friday 11 September. The format of the day will remain the same as last year, a roving carnival to continue to promote high levels of student
engagement and participation.

Students are to arrive at the Lavalla Campus by 8.45am and they will then move across to the Marcellin oval as a group. The carnival will commence at 9.00am.

Students are required to wear their faction shirt and bring their sports bag containing a water bottle, sunscreen, school hat, snacks and lunch. They will carry this with them throughout the day.

Lunch orders will be available from the canteen as usual, however students must bring a packed recess.

Newman Parents Consultative Committee Meeting

An invitation is extended to all parents and guardians to attend the next Newman Parents Consultative Committee Meeting (NPCC).

The NPCC meetings, convened by the Principal and attended by various members of the College Leadership Team, is a representative group, voice and forum to gain insight into our school improvement plan and to discuss school concerns.

Whilst policy is determined and set by the College Executive and supported by the Advisory Council, the NPCC is a critically important group in providing input and feedback.
