Greetings to all of you as we prepare for our K-10 students to return to the College. Firstly I want to extend my gratitude to all families for your outstanding support during this difficult time when we had the majority of our students (85- 90%) remaining at home in the last seven – eight weeks. I am also grateful to those families of essential workers who worked constantly in collaboration with us to ensure that their children, being supervised at school, were focused and motivated.

Year 7s are currently working on their 'design a salad' task where they research flavor combinations and dressings to see what works well together. Miss Gysen is looking forward to seeing a variety of salads appearing in the Microsoft Teams Home cooking chat.

Dominic College has a philosophy that technology has enabled learning ‘anywhere and anytime’. Our Year 5-10 Laptop program has embraced this context.
