We are an independent, non-denominational, co-educational K – 12 school. We offer performing arts & performance sports streams with an equal focus on academic rigour.
Orientation for new students
Once your child is enrolled, families are provided a Parents & Student Handbookwhich details the College rules and expectations, services you can access, timetabling information, and communication protocols.
McD buddies
Every new student is allocated a buddy. Their role for the first couple of weeks is to make the new student feel warmly welcomed, explain the College routines, make introductions, accompany new students to each of their lessons, provide reassurance and support, and generally help make the transition to a new environment easier.
Welcome Day for Year 7 students
A Welcome Day for all future Year 7 students is held in November each year.
This is for both completely new to the College and current Year 6 students at the College.
Families will be invited to experience a short showcase of performances and light refreshments. Students will be assessed in literacy, numeracy and thinking, so we can support them as needed when they start with us the following year.
Families enrolling after this event will be welcomed individually and students assessed at a separate time.
The aim of welcoming our families in this way is so we can get to know each other better and ensure a smooth transition into Secondary School for all Year 7 students.
