Attention Students & Parents of students undertaking end of year VCAA Exams

As we approach mid-Term 3, we recognise this is an exceptionally busy time for students. Please read below, a letter containing important information about this active period.

Important Information Regarding Student Leave Passes

Parents and guardians are kindly reminded of the following procedure for student leave passes:

  • Please do not call the school to arrange leave passes, as we are sometimes unable to relay messages to students in a timely manner.
  • Instead, please provide your child with a written note stating the time they need to leave.
  • Your child should show the note to their class teacher at the appropriate time and then sign out at Student Reception with the note. Allow extra time for this.
  • Students returning from an appointment must sign back in at Student Reception before returning to class.
  • Please do not use SEQTA or leave voicemail messages for leave passes, as these are not always monitored in real-time.

Thank you for your support in helping us manage student movement during the school day efficiently and safely.

Tree Planting Day

Nearly 100 Notre Dame College students representing all year levels, graced some gorgeous late winter sunshine to plant a variety of native plants, shrubs and grasses as part of our annual Tree Planting Day.

Tree Planting Day is the College’s way of giving our community the chance to show their solidarity with creation by regenerating our earth with native vegetation. The planting was conducted in partnership with Greater Shepparton Council at Yakka Reserve in Shepparton.

Our Terra Tomodachi Coordinator, Phil Guthrie was super proud of all the students for giving up valuable class time to do their bit for the environment.

Year 12 Art Making and Exhibiting Excursion – SAM

Our Year 12 Art Making and Exhibiting students recently visited the Shepparton Art Museum to view Brett Whiteley: Inside the Studio.

During the excursion, students participated in a special presentation from the museum’s conservator, who provided valuable insights into the care and conservation of artworks. The conservator explained in detail how artworks are prepared, monitored, and maintained before, during, and after an exhibition. Students gained an understanding of the measures taken to protect artworks on display, including environmental controls, handling procedures, and storage practices.

The presentation was highly engaging and offered a professional perspective on the behind-the-scenes processes that ensure artworks such as Whiteley’s remain preserved for future audiences.
This was a meaningful experience that supported our students’ studies in conservation and care, directly linking classroom learning with real-world gallery practice.
