Principal’s Message
It is great to be back at our wonderful school
A warm welcome to all our students, staff, parents and community partners for what will be another
fantastic year for our school.
Special regards go to our Year 7 students and parents who have joined us this year. While anxiety is usually
high for parents with children starting high school, it hasn’t been the case for the kids. It is great to see
students settling in nicely and forming positive relationships with their peers. Parents are able to receive
more feedback about their son's progress during "Meet the Teacher Afternoon" on Tuesday 7 March 2017.
The afternoon is open to Yr7 and Yr12 students and their parents as part of our commitment to track
progress and ensure the best possible outcomes for our most junior and senior years.
Promoting excellence and success
It has been a busy start to the year as we celebrated our achievements of 2016 earlier on this year at
Presentation Day. It was great to see staff, students, parents and community partners share our student
academic, sporting and leadership success.
Working closely with Primary Schools
Last week, primary principals and teachers
participated in a communications project at
Belmore Boys High School. The project aims at
supporting student transition from Year 6 to 7 and
allows for the promotion of our school amongst
primary colleagues and their parents. It was a
fantastic opportunity for our school to hear from
primary colleagues as well as primary school
parents about what they look for in a high school
and how Belmore Boys can support student transition as they shift from being the most senior year in
primary school to the most junior year in high school.
