From the Vice Principal – Week 2 Term 2

Jenni Vile on 09/05/2025

Marian Lecture

As a Marist College, May holds special significance for our community. It is a time to reflect deeply on one of our core Marist characteristics, “In the Way of Mary”, and to consider how we embody this in our daily lives. In this edition of the newsletter, our Director of Mission and Catholic Identity, Mr Stuart McClorey, shares further insights into this meaningful theme.

In connection with this focus, we are delighted to host a live stream of the Marian Lecture, a free event open to all members of our College community. We warmly invite you to join us for this special occasion. Light refreshments will be served following the lecture.

Please register your interest to attend  here.

YourMove – Term 2 Update

Earlier this week, it was lovely to have Sonja Stemler, the Active Transport Project Manager from the City of Stirling visit the College. Sonja joined me on a tour, as we discussed the different initiatives that the College has in place and potential improvements to promote active transport in our community.

Sonja provided some invaluable insights into how the College can get the most out of the YourMove program. You can keep up to date with our journey here.

Winter Uniform and Presentation

It has been great to see students back on Campus this term in their Winter Academic Uniform. The Leaders of Wellbeing have been completing uniform checks over the week and have been pleased with the way most students are presenting. I would like to thank families and students for their continued support in maintaining Newman College’s high presentation standards.
