Rolling out the welcome mat

St Peter's College - developing the skills today to thrive in tomorrow’s world.

WHY ATTEND A SCHOOL OPEN EVENT?

March is often the month when many secondary schools roll out the welcome mat for prospective students and their parents. Open or Discovery Events are essentially just as the name suggests – days when schools open their doors, were you can discover a great deal more about the school, when the school principal is available for questions, when teachers get to showcase their classrooms, when students act as guides.

There’s no doubt that these days are incredibly valuable resources in that they give you and your child an opportunity to discover what their potential ‘second home’ looks and feels like. They also provide information beyond what is available in school documentation and on websites. Open or Discovery Events are opportunities for parents to ask specifics about educational opportunities, extracurricular programs, pastoral care and community spirit.

‘Developing the skills today to thrive in tomorrow’s world’: The 21st Century learner will need a skill-set of: critical thinking, effective communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively and creativity. St. Peter’s College strives to provide opportunities for our students to engage and excel in all of these areas.

IT’S A BIG DECISION

When selecting a secondary school for your child, you need to feel confident in not only what that school can deliver in Year 7, but how the school can provide a stimulating learning environment across the six years. It’s a big decision.

Our desire is for students to run excitedly through St. Peter’s College gates to commence their secondary schooling as a Year 7 student, and walk out at the end of Year 12, with confidence, a sense of purpose, and a feeling of positivity about their future lives.

We are a proudly Catholic community with a focus on Christ at the centre of our learning with a strong focus on the development of the whole person, academically, socially, emotionally and spiritually.

St. Peter’s College opens up for two evenings in March for parents and their child/ren to experience our classrooms in action, to meet and talk to our students and staff, even joining in some classroom activities.
