today's show Welcome to Shalom TV our principal Mr Dan mcmah has all the college information we need to know for both students and parents alike in principal talk welcome everyone to another edition of Shalom TV so we come towards the end of a very busy semester um 2024 as we finish semester 1 really pleased to be able to announce to the shalam community that our kolok building which you will see pictures of behind me shortly uh will go ahead um starting very shortly only in the last 15 minutes did the was I advised the tenders had come in and were slightly under the budget that we had anticipated for that building so we will be full steam ahead with that we expect to have builders on site within the next Fortnight over the holidays to start demolition of the Damian block and start to build the new kolok building which will look a lot for for people like the current Waterford building but will be designed more for year 11 and 12 students in English and Humanities so that's a really exciting uh multi-million dollar project for Shalom over the next 12 months I'm really hoping that we will have that open for business by the start of term 2 2025 as we come towards the end of the term and I mentioned it in the last newsletter I have a sense of gratefulness to so many people for making semester one at this wonderful college so busy jam-pack full of great activities for young people from the teaching and learning that goes on every day in our classrooms and just as I walked here seeing young year seven students so immersed in drama and dance and music uh to all the activities that go on academically for us as a college teachers in our school and the teacher aids and support staff we back them up do a wonderful job for your children and that is only helped by the support you give them as parents that you value their education and encourage them that to do the best that they can do on top of all that I really hope all of us have the same sense of gratefulness to the people who add over and above here at Shalom over the next couple of days we'll take um four teams of students to Townsville by bus so many staff involved in that for our quizen and quiz carnivals we'll have students going to Bendigo for the mercy school student conference in Victoria they'll take a jumper or two with them we've just finished a really successful showcase here at uh Shalom over last weekend two nights and just again a tremendous display of talent uh at Shalom that's ay led by so many wonderful staff sport the art academics stem camps so many things make up part of life at Shalom I'm so grateful for the staff who support those things but I'm really grateful for the students and the parents who rise to the occasion and support those staff doing the job that they do I often talk to in in the circles that I move and principal colleagues in this state uh in Catholic system and The Wider education system and nationally I'm on the executive of a National Catholic Secondary principles conference so I talk to a lot of principles around the state and around the country I'm always quietly very proud of our Shalom students and staff and parents there are always things that don't go well and sometimes there are problems but comparatively Shalom is blessed to have things go as well as they do every day day in day out and that doesn't happen by accident it happens because of the tremendous support and enthusiasm from staff the wonderful enthusiasm of students and the and the unflinching support we get from parents here we shouldn't take that for granted for one minute so a huge thank you for me at the end of a semester for all that you've done to participate to making Shalom a great College I hope this holiday break is wonderful for all of you who can take a break I hope this your sons and daughters um make time to say thank you to you for the opportunities you give them every day have a great break and look forward to seeing everyone
