The Commonwealth Grant requires that a range of data be available to the school community and the general public. This data is available here along with the NAPLAN results for 2008.
The College has spent in excess of $13,000 on staff professional development. Staff have attended workshops run by VCAA, the Catholic Education Office, Professional Associations, the Brigidine Secondary Schools Council, Registered Training Organisations and the like. There were four days of whole school workshops and ongoing development through professional learning teams and faculty groups. Four staff members completed their Masters Degree in 2008: Mrs Yamanaka, Mrs Whisson, Ms Benson and Mrs Levett.
Parents are no doubt aware of the many sports, drama, public speaking, justice, leadership, music, dance and art options that are available to students. Details on Camps, Retreats and Excursions which provide for learning beyond the school gate are available on the College website.
The College appreciates the ongoing support of the parents, the Stewardship Council and Committees, as well as the Brigidine community.
