COMPASS Student Card

It is a College expectation that all students have their COMPASS student ID card with them everyday. The card is used in particular for students to tap in and out of the College for late arrival or early departure. I ask for the support of parents in ensuring that your daughter/s have this with them everyday.  If students have misplaced or lost their student ID card it is a requirement that the card is replaced. Please see below for how to order a new card online.

 

MSCW Parent Engagement 

Our MSCW Parent Engagement Model strives to build quality relationships across the College community.

Aims:

  • A model of partnership with parent and families to increase parental engagement, belonging  and communication;
  • An avenue for parents to be involved in the College community with parents of their daughter’s year group;
  • Helping out and working with other parents in a service or social event;
  • Providing a parental perspective to assist the Principal in decision making;
  • Organising and running events that support the values and strategic directions of the College;
