A note from our Principal
Term One is well and truly underway, with new routines established and classes getting involved in some serious learning! Each day as I visit classrooms and speak to our students I am in awe of the happy, positive and respectful young people here at TLC. There is so much happening with dance, music and sport activities, camps underway (Year 7 have had a fabulous time in Victor Harbor this week) and classroom based learning everywhere I look.
Fabulous young people engaged in great learning doesn't just happen. Your partnership as parents, together with our fabulous College staff, allows us to work together to provide the best learning setting we can for our TLC students to succeed.
May God Bless our 2019 year!
