Congratulations for Student Achievement in 2020 &
Arrangements for the Commencement of the School 2021

We do have much to celebrate at Strathmore Secondary College.

I am proud of our students’ achievements and the way in which they have demonstrated our school values of Perseverance in their learning; Respect for each other and their teachers; Integrity in their honest approach to learning this year; Diversity in their celebration of our varied school community, and Excellence in their completion of learning tasks to the best of their ability.

Dates for the Commencement of School in 2021
Year 7 students and students new to the College will commence on Thursday 28th January, with a part-day induction program. 

Classes for all students will commence on Friday 29th January. 

Photo Day
Please remind your child that photo day is Friday 29th January. Students in Years 7-11 are reminded to be in full school uniform. VCE students’ photos will commence at 8am in M2. Students in Years 7-10 will be notified of their session in team assembly at the beginning of the day.

Form Assembly 
In reviewing the operation of form assembly during 2020, the school, in consultation with the leadership team, has decided to continue with form assembly on a daily basis for Year 7 and 8 students. Year 9 and 10 students will attend form assembly on alternate days with Year 9 form assembly running on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Year 10 form assembly will take place on Tuesday and Thursday. The school recognises the importance of providing time for students to meet together as a group and check in with a form teacher on a regular basis. This decision has been informed by the importance of preparing Year 9 and 10 students for senior school, whilst maintaining a connection to their junior team. Senior students are also expected to be on college grounds during this time to facilitate student meetings and team assemblies as required.  

Form assembly will commence at 9.02am on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday.  Thursday’s Form assembly will commence at 9.15am.  It will run for 5 minutes.
​
We recognise that this is a change to the form assembly program and are seeking the cooperation of families to ensure students are at school with plenty of time to attend form assembly in preparation for the school day. 

Form assembly will be included on students’ Compass timetable.

Uniform
Strathmore Secondary College is a full uniform school for students in Year 7-11.  The College Council has extended the ‘grace’ period for transitioning to new uniform. This is due to the impact that the current Covid-19 pandemic is having on some families’ financial situation. Council has extended the transition period to the end of 2021. We would like to remind all families of the importance of wearing our school uniform with pride, and thank our students for their continued cooperation.

I wish you a restful and well-deserved holiday break and look forward to welcoming everyone back to school in 2021.

Visual Arts Exhibition 2020

Picture
2020 proved to be a year where students had to draw on their inherent understanding of each Study Design and their individual skills. This gave them confidence to adjust between working at school or independently at home, accessing any available resources. Personal strengths in their selected art forms were used and the results are a reflection of their determination to succeed.
