Deputy Principal | Mr Chris Ryan

Staff News

Best wishes to Mr Brendan Ganley, Program Leader Years 5 and 6 who commenced long service leave for the remainder of the term this week. Mr Innes Harriman will act in this role for the rest of the term and we wish him every success for this experience. We welcome Mrs Kaylene Campbell back to Terrace and into Mr Ganley and Mr Harriman’s classes for this time.

Our thoughts and prayers go to Mrs Suzanne Black, a member of our Waterford teaching team who has been very unwell for a couple of weeks. We thank Mrs Susie Cooper for ably covering for her. We wish Mrs Black a speedy recovery.

Thank you to our hard working and committed pastoral team for their presence at the Year 12 Formal on Tuesday night this week and for backing up to lead the Year 11 Leadership Camp later in the week. We also continue to work hard on meeting the challenge of change with the senior schooling system alterations this year. Term 3 is a particularly busy time with this for curriculum leaders and teachers of Years 11 and 12 who are managing two processes at once. Their commitment and dedication is outstanding.

College Open Day

Next Monday 19 August, the College will be ‘open’ from 3.30-6pm. All of our community are most welcome.

Our Year 11 students will be hosting tours commencing from the flagpole area near the Rogers Street entrance. Dr Carroll will facilitate a Principal’s welcome each half hour from 3.45pm for a five minute address in Duhig Place. Duhig Place will also have various displays and information booths from our terrific parent Support Groups.

The new Mt Sion Building will be open all the way through to the roof area which is called Mt Sion Court. Please feel welcome to come and take a look from the College Pool under Duhig Place and all the way up to the roof.

Our wonderful teaching staff will be hosting displays in classrooms on Level 4 (one up from the ground floor of Duhig Place) and Level 5 in the classroom buildings that run along Victoria Street. Further displays can be found in the Art and Engineering rooms in the building on the corner of Victoria and Water Street. These spaces have been recently renovated and are great.

In the Campbell Centre, you will find various sport and HPE activities and parent Support Group information booths.

Our Music and Drama students will be active throughout the site and in the Billet St Theatre.

Please also feel welcome to visit the Years 5 and 6 classrooms which are all renovated in the Billet Street building and above College Hall where the Terrace story begins and ends each year.

There is also the opportunity to visit the Year 10 Waterford Place campus to meet staff and students to learn about this key year in the Terrace journey.

Please feel welcome to visit yourself or to tell your friends and family who are thinking about a Terrace education for their son. We look forward to welcoming you.
