Work Experience

Presently I am experiencing a pleasing surge in returns of work placement forms. Work experience week is only 6 weeks away!

In coming weeks Pastoral Teachers will be encouraging our boys to finalise their arrangements during May. Due date for all forms is 1 June.

Morrisby Online Reports and Interviews

Year 10 students have been receiving both their full hard copy report and debriefing interview from Mr Meehan over the past few weeks. These interviews will continue until the all Year 10s have been interviewed at the end of May. A catch up assessment day for boys who missed the testing day in March will be conducted on Monday 30 May.

Morrisby Online Parent Information Evening

Reminder to Year 10 parents that this event is in the planner for Wednesday 1 June at 7.30pm in the Spring Boardroom.

Invitations to the Morrisby Online PIE event were sent out this week via email to all Year 10 parents.

Already I have received a stream of RSVPs, thank you.
