On Wednesday 15 September there is strike action by PPTA members scheduled. The college will be open but all assessments scheduled for senior students will go ahead on Friday 17 September. There will be no programmed classes for students in Years 9 and 10. Should parents/caregivers require students to be supervised there will be classrooms available which will be monitored by non-PPTA members. Please contact the relevant Dean if you need to send your son/daughter to school to be supervised.
If the strike action is called off, normal school and assessment programmes will occur.
Thank you for your co-operation with these changes to our normal routine.
