Term 2 Update

1 May 2012

Since our last communication in March, progress has been in the evaluation of the buildings and all the steps have been made in preparing our insurance claim.

Following the further evaluations of the buildings the dining room’s improved assessment meant the Board of Proprietors was in a position to reopen this facility.

The Board of Proprietors have set in motion a plan to have six relocatable classrooms operating by the beginning of Term 3. Costings to either repair or replace damaged buildings that are under code are being considered by the Proprietors, and once they know the return gained from the insurance claim, then a long term plan can be formulated.

The Board of Proprietors and Board of Trustees continue to meet regularly and the post EQ committee established at the beginning of the year is up to date with current issues and has begun to plan for the future. The group has employed specialist consultants to address short term and long term issues.

As we begin the second term we are conscious that staff and students continue to work in conditions far from ideal, with many staff work in a number of rooms, so replacement buildings and the payment for them remain a priority.

We thank the parent community for its support of the College in these challenging times.
