First Day for Year 7 2025

What to wear on your first day

Year 7 students are to wear their sports uniform on their first day, Tuesday, 28 January 2025. Normal school uniform will be required on Wednesday and Thursday of the first week. Friday is our Sports day for Year 7, and they will be required to wear their sports uniform again on this first Friday, 31 January 2025. 

Parents are invited to join us for a welcome briefing from 8.50am in the Iona Theatre. 

What to bring on your first day

Students need to bring their school books, textbooks and a pencil case. Students are also asked to bring their laptop devices where possible. Lockers and locks will be allocated on the first day so that students can leave their books at school. Students who are moving up from our Year 6 cohort will be allocated new lockers for Year 7, however will be required to keep their current locks. 

Students need to bring their own lunch, a snack for Short Break and a water bottle. The School Canteen will also be open for students to purchase food and drinks if they wish. Please remember to bring a hat.

What to expect on day one

The Year 7 Patron, Mr Will Twigg, will be located in an office in the Year 7 playground area and will oversee all student and parent concerns as they arise.

We look forward to welcoming our Year 7 2025 students to Secondary School at St Columba.
