  • Canberra College Students Qualifying for This Honour
    Principal’s Report - AUGUST 2015 I I welcome you all back to the business end of the year, particularly for our Year 12 students. I trust that all students returned rested and revitalised for the semester ahead. At our first week assembly I talked about the importance of feedback as it has two purposes; summative performance and also suggestions for improving performance. Last semester every student received a formal written summative report. This complements the feedback that students received throughout the term through the variety of learning and assessment activities as well as performance in the exams. Seeking and giving feedback also improves the performance of both teacher and student. Parent, teacher and student feedback along with performance data for the college collected over the past 4 years has now been analysed by an external panel as part of the review and validation process. The college validation report will be published before the end of term 3 and will contain a series of commendations and recommendations which will inform our planning for the next 4 years. I thank the students, staff and parents who contributed to the panels deliberations. In the next few weeks student, teachers and parents will be asked to complete the annual online school satisfaction survey. This is an important guide for us in our planning for whole college improvement. Please make the time complete this survey as we value your input and suggestions. Our staff and students continue to excel in a variety of areas. I acknowledge and congratulate; Jim Phillips who has won a promotion to Executive Teacher Science and PE at Lake Tuggeranong College.

As well as appearing on BBC TV. An accomplished magician, comedian and actor, Paul's skills have won him critical acclaim, Time Out magazine named him 'a superb showman!’ Both the Magic Circle and the International Brotherhood of Magicians have recognized Paul's talent naming him Young Magician of the Year and awarding him the British Shield. Fast-paced, dynamic magic, quick- witted humor, and a theatrical flair combined with a personality that reaches to the very back of the theatre. Join Paul as he reveals exactly what’s up his sleeve and delves into his box of tricks while cheekily enchanting the audience with jaw-dropping hilarity. The Mentalist, Chris Cox As star of BBC Three's Killer Magic, and the hit West End magic show Impossible, Chris Cox is the multi-award-winning mind reader who can't read minds. Dubbed by The Guardian Newspaper as "one of the most exciting entertainers in Britain", Chris' side-splitting, confident, silly, charismatic and mischievous sense of magic and wonder has been seen by over 300,000 people worldwide. Using a mongrel hybrid mix of witty chit chat, magic, psychology, body language, influencing, devilish good looks… and lying, Chris will make you think that he knows what you’re thinking.
