Pathways, Partnerships and Possibilities
With Term 3 firmly underway, I extend a warm welcome back to all families. This term is a pivotal time in the academic year—a period where students begin to solidify their learning pathways and make important decisions about their future.
To support this, Scotch Oakburn College is offering a range of key events designed to strengthen the partnership between students, families, and staff. These include information sessions and opportunities for parents and carers to connect directly with teachers and Heads of Department.
Already this term, we’ve seen strong attendance at the TCE Information Night and the Parent-Student-Teacher Conferences. These events have provided valuable opportunities for families to engage in meaningful conversations about student progress, subject choices, and future aspirations. Similar events are scheduled for other year levels in the coming weeks, ensuring that every student has the support they need to thrive.
Term 3 is also about rich cocurricular experiences. As the academic requirements intensify, it is important that students maintain balance in their lives. A special highlight this term will be the College production of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child (High School Edition) at the Princess Theatre. Have you secured your tickets?
We encourage all families to take full advantage of the academic and co-curricular opportunities available this term. Your involvement plays a vital role in helping students feel confident, connected, and ready to take the next steps in their learning journey.
We look forward to a term filled with growth, collaboration, and celebration.
