Welcome back to all for the 2023 school year. A quick introduction of myself being new to the role. I have been Assistant Principal at St Francis De Sales Leeton and most recently Trinity Catholic College Goulburn. Before that I was PDHPE Coordinator at Kildare Catholic College in Wagga Wagga. I look forward to working with students and parents and being involved in the Hennessy community.

Subject changes - Year 9, 10 and 11 have been busy making changes to their pattern of study. A reminder that they may change subjects up until the end of week 3 this term where availability exists in that class. Students need to collect a form from my office and have it signed by the relevant KLA Leaders and their parents. Once done this needs to be handed to me personally and I will make the change as soon as I can. All students are to stay in their Compass class until the new class appears. 

A reminder that our Assessment policies and procedures can be found on the College website. I will be meeting with Year 11 and their Parents next Tuesday, 14 February to go over the senior assessment policy.

Afternoon study commences in Week 3 from 3.30-4.30 every Wednesday afternoon and Maths support is available during this time. 

Thanks to the College students and staff for a warm welcome in what has already been a busy few weeks. I wish all students, especially year 12 a successful year and my door is open if anyone has any questions or concerns.

Parents! Are you on Compass yet? The Compass parent portal is the central way for you to keep in touch with school for day-to-day news, absence notes, student timetables and semester  reports via a smartphone app or website. Login reminders were emailed out last week. Please contact the Hennessy office if you need help accessing Compass.
