Sunbury College students open their thrift store for a VIP fundraiser, aiming to raise $1000 for Lifeline.

VM Thrift Shop VIP Afternoon Event
This year we are hosting a VIP afternoon to invite our parent, student, teacher, and wider community to visit our thrift shop to see the wonderful effort the Year 12 VM classes have put into the project. We will also have a bake sale, with baked goods made with love from students, teachers, and local businesses, a complimentary tea and coffee station, and most importantly, a live acoustic set from our VM students to create a warm and welcoming vibe. Come down for a browse, a cuppa and a cake! All proceeds raised by your purchases will be going to our chosen charity, Lifeline Australia. We are currently at around $350, but we’d love to reach our fundraiser target of $1,000. We don’t have EFTPOS facilities, so you’ll need to bring along cash or use the QR code to pay directly to our fundraiser page on the evening. If you’re keen to donate, here is the link to our fundraiser page - Funky Finds Fundraiser Page
We look forward to seeing you.

VM Update
Yesterday at the Hume Global Learning Centre both VCE VM Year 11 and 12 students participated in the Real Industry Job Interviews (RIJI’s) for Work Related Skills. In class, students had followed processes to find a job online related to their industry and write an application including a cover letter and resume. In preparation for their mock interviews, students learned about the common types of interview questions asked and were given strategies to use to help them respond. Overall, students did a fantastic job and walked out of their mock interviews feeling more confident. It is a great experience, and we really value this this event on our VCE VM Calendar each year.

It’s subject selection time! Today our Year 9 students took part in a ‘Subject Fair’ run by our Instructional Leaders. Students were given information about the subjects on offer to them in Year 10 next year so they can make informed decisions for their future pathways and success.

Day 1 of Naarm: Ice Skating.
Great engagement and excitement from all
