On Wednesday, 15 November 2017 Holy Cross
College hosted an orientation day for students who will be new to the school in
2018. Around 230 new students from pre-primary to year seven enjoyed a fun day
of activities designed to induct the students into the life of the College and
build friendships in preparation for the new school year in 2018.
Parents enjoyed a tour of the facilities and an
introductory seminar outlining the faith story of the College, along with details
regarding the requirements and procedures for the commencement of the 2018
school year.
Students were introduced to the 2018 year-level
teachers in the Junior school. A number of new staff members were present for
the orientation day.
We welcome the following new Junior School teachers for 2018:
- Joanne Wright
- Annette Barron
- Megan Brown
- Anthony Davis
- Amy Edwards
- Deanna Russo
- Kate Dunstan
- Rachel Whan - Chemistry/Science
- Georgina Pratt - Dance
- Jessica Vaini - Digital Technology
- Rachel Rafferty - English
- Sharna Gregson - Human Biology/Science
- Leanne Murphy - Home Economics
The demand for student places at the College has
been strong with an additional stream of classes added from year two to year six
for 2018. Limited places are available in some year levels for 2018.
Holy Cross College has established an excellent
reputation for its contemporary approach to learning and teaching within
vibrant and flexible learning spaces, underpinned by the latest educational
theories and technology. The success of the approach to teaching and learning
is confirmed through NAPLAN results, which show consistent value adding across
the years, as well as a student receiving a General Exhibition in the Western
Australian Certificate of Education (WACE) examinations. We hope to build on
these outstanding achievements in 2018 and in the years to come.
We are looking forward to working together in
partnership with our new students and families.
