Family Club:

The College firmly believes that every family matters and every family has strengths that they can share with others. 

The focus of the College in 2008 is to engage families in the education of their children.  College Council is currently establishing the Family Club and staff at various peer group levels are working at getting families together. 

Many families do not have the opportunity to discuss issues concerning the development of their children and they operate in isolation.  The concept of the Family Club is to provide a forum for families to meet.  For instance, the first gathering of Year 8 Families will take the form of a "pie night" and student work will be on display.  Students will be invited to talk about the work that they are doing at school and together with families celebrate their achievement.  A nucleus of  families have volunteered to bring others along.  Our aim is to get 100% of families to join the Family Club.  Peer groups may well adopt a project that binds them together.  What a fantastic celebration it will be when the Year 8 Family Club celebrate the achievement together at the various milestones along the journey with their children.  Research clearly shows that close knit groups achieve at significantly higher levels.
