Back to face-to-face learning

I hope families have now settled back into school routines, particularly after the lockdown last week. I would like to extend a very special welcome to our new Reception families.

Our students have demonstrated great resilience and flexibility both throughout the lockdown period and in returning to school as we adjust to some new restrictions. I have been really impressed with the manner in which they have embraced the wearing of masks in the classroom.

New-look Boarding House 

The excitement of returning to a fully refurbished Boarding House at the start of Term 3 was short-lived once the lockdown was announced. Nevertheless, most of our boarders have returned to Duggan House this week, after either having to return home or stay with host families for the lockdown period. They are pleased to be back, enjoying the modern and bright environment, not to mention the new facilities and spaces. I would again like to thank the Rostrevor Foundation and all our Giving Day supporters for getting behind this great project that has given our regional students some of the finest boarding facilities in the State.
