The Calling - part of The Rite Journey for Year 9

The Rite Journey is a unique educational program designed to support the development and transition of our students from children into self-aware, vital, responsible, respectful and resilient adults.

World Read Aloud Day at Dominic

​Reading is a lifelong skill that can take a person to any place in the world, for any length of time. In most of our classrooms, a teacher sharing novels and picture books with their classes is normal and occurs several times each day. The class novel is an excellent time for students to calm down and ready themselves for our next learning block and enjoy the delights of a story. Currently there are a range of authors being studied including Enid Blyton, Paul Jennings, Andy Griffiths, Mem Fox and Alison Lester.

Lent is a special time

Writing is more than putting words on paper

In the week before students returned, staff were back at Dominic preparing their classrooms, collaborating with their colleagues and participating in Professional Development. Teachers on the K-10 Writing team were fortunate to spend a whole day working with Educational Consultant, Ivana Jones, beginning the design of our K-10 Writing Plan.
