PRESENTATION NIGHT
Our Annual Presentation Night was held on Wednesday 14th December in the Hugh McRae Hall.
It was a wonderful night of celebration of everything that makes Lyndale Secondary College such an effective learning community. The theme for this year reflects the important partnerships that we foster between students, staff, parents and the community and the importance of embracing all our talents for our ongoing success.

UNSW GLOBAL
I also recently attended the 2011 ICAS Victorian Medal Presentation Ceremony. ICAS is one of the most highly regarded school based competition and assessment programs in the world. This year Katherine Daniel of 9C (SEAL Program) received the UNSW medal; this is awarded to the top entry in Victoria. Congratulations Katherine, the Lyndale Secondary College community is very proud of your outstanding achievements.
Lyndale Secondary College received a plaque for outstanding achievement in the 2011 International Competitions and Assessments for Schools which is displayed in the reception area.
EXAMINATIONS
Over the past weeks we have conducted the VCAA Unit 4 examinations as well as our own Year 11examinations. These examinations involved nearly 300 students and they are all to be commended for the way in which they have approached these important assessment sessions. The Senior School Team, led by Bill Hollingworth and Corey Martin are to be congratulated for the meticulous way in which these examinations were conducted. I would also like to take this opportunity to acknowledge the work of Susan O’Brien and Grace O’Halloran who acted as our Chief Supervisors and ensured that all the VCAA examinations were run so efficiently.
REMEMBRANCE DAY
This month the college conducted a Remembrance Day service. Congratulations and thanks to Linda Souleiman and Burcu Altay for their role in reading to the whole school. Students treated the occasion with tremendous respect and are always genuinely interested in knowing of and paying homage to those who gave their lives for our country.
