Well done to all the boys that are representing the college in the ACC this term on your great start to your seasons.
We finished the week by joining with the rest of the St Bernard’s community by participating in the Edmund Rice Day Mass, solidarity walk and activities. It was great to come back to Essendon and to re-join the wider community, where we had great weather for the solidarity walk, and we raised awareness and funds for our friends at the Edmund Rice Catholic Education Centre in Kenya.
Looking forward to next week, where 9C begin their Urban Engagement program and 9F continue the second week of their Santa Monica experience. At Resurrection House, we will be having a Year Level assembly on Monday and on Thursday we will be participating in the incursion called The Storey Players, which is a charitable organisation, whose principal mission is to empower kids through drama workshops and storytelling activities to strengthen their self-confidence and increase their literacy skills.
On Friday, our school portraits are taken, so all students are reminded to be in full winter uniform. On the Monday following (May 15), we are having a full Year Nine photo, so it is again important that all students are in their full winter uniform for that day.
A renewed focus will also be made on the Year 9 Certificate over the next fortnight, where students will be reminded of their responsibility to complete all requirements of the four action domains, being Community Connectedness, Physical and Personal Challenge, Academic and Organisational, and An Eye to the Future. Students are again encouraged to step out so they comfort zone and achieve as much as they can this year.
Until next time
