Ignite a Passion for Learning
This year the focus for the Glenroy Campus shall include cultivating a student learning culture. Cultivating a student learning culture amongst our students involves both an academic and wellbeing focus that educates and empowers students to take ownership of their own educational pursuits and wellbeing development through guidance and support. The 2022 Wellbeing Framework, The Resilience Project and the accompanying student planners, aim to cultivate an energetic and enthusiastic student learning culture.

The key message to staff, student and our families is to ‘Ignite a Passion for Learning’. As parents and caregivers we can ignite a passion for learning using MyPenola, where families can access the class pages for your child’s different subjects, thus gaining insight to what is being studied at present. This can aide parents in having discussions around the topic being studied, thus impacting on your child’s learning.

The staff and I look forward to working with each of our families this year in developing a love for learning.

Thank you to parents who logged onto our Year 7 Information Evening on Wednesday, conducted by our Year & homeroom teachers. The information provided was largely around the upcoming Year 7 camps. There was also a vodcast that was played and can be viewed on the Year 7 page of MyPenola. If you missed the session or wanted further clarification on what was discussed, please reach out to your child’s homeroom teacher either by email or phone.
