The Lakes South Morang College - Issue 20

The Lakes South Morang College Newsletter PRINCIPAL REPORT

Our recent Colour Run Fundraising activity was a resounding success, thanks to the enthusiastic participation of students, staff, and parents/ carers. This whole - school event not only brought our community together but also raised funds that will be dedicated to upgrading interschool sport uniforms for our students. We believe that fostering a sense of pride and unity through such events is integral to the holistic development of our students. A massive shout out to Jaz who has been instrumental in the planning for such an important and successful event for our College community – we can ’ t wait to see this develop into an annual event. As we prepare for the end - of - year celebrations, including Year 6 graduation and the upcoming awards ceremony, we are also preparing students for 2024, including Prep and Year 7 transition and orientation programs, and the Primary Meet the Teacher afternoon. We are excited to celebrate the achievements and growth of each student, and also plan for continued successful learning journeys throughout 2024. These end of year events not only mark important milestones in our students' lives but also reinforce the sense of community and support that defines our College. Looking ahead to 2024, we are implementing several changes to enhance the overall experience at The Lakes. These changes include a shift to using surnames for staff, a minimum dress code for staff, the installation of glass partition walls in all learning areas across both campuses, the inclusion of vertical class groupings on the Secondary Campus, and a change in bell times for both campuses. These adjustments are aimed at creating an even more conducive learning environment and ensuring the continued growth and success of our school community.

As we conclude this academic year, and with this being my last newsletter item of 2023, let us celebrate our achievements, express gratitude for the support of our community, and eagerly anticipate the promising future that lies ahead.
