U16 & 19 Futsal

By | News, Sport | No Comments

It’s fantastic for our college to be apart of the growth and popularity of futsal amongst schools on the Central Coast! Futsal offers an opportunity for our students to enjoy the game while honing their soccer skills!

Our students’ passion and dedication play a significant role in the growth and success of the sport within the school community.

A big thank you to Mr McFarlane and Mrs Carantinos for their unwavering support and dedication to futsal at St Brigid’s. Their guidance, encouragement, and hard work undoubtedly contribute to creating a positive and nurturing environment for students to thrive in the sport – we can’t wait for next years competition!

Intermediate Boys Soccer

By | News, Sport | No Comments
Our intermediate boy’s soccer team had an amazing time at the intermediate boy’s soccer gala day last week down at Forrestville! The weather may have been unpredictable, but it didn’t dampen the boy’s spirits. It’s fantastic to watch the boys play their best and their sportsmanship was top-notch.
Events like these are not just about the competition but also about the bonds formed and they fun had. And a big thank you to Mrs. Foo for her support and for driving us all to the event, her contribution surely made the day possible and more enjoyable for everyone.

Road Safety

By | Community, News | No Comments

Dear St Brigid’s Community,

This is an important reminder that road safety is a shared responsibility. Please discuss this notice with your family.
To increase the safety on Carters Road, we have been advised that the Traffic Police may increase their presence during peak times to enforce adherence to the road rules outside all schools on Carters Road, including no-parking zones.

How can you help?
As the Central Coast’s population increases, schools on Carters Road are experiencing congestion during the peak morning and afternoon periods. This is placing pressure on the surrounding road environments and our neighbours.

Specific to St Brigid’s, we ask parents/carers and families to consider the following:

  1. Have children walk to College or walk from a ‘drop off point’ outside of Carters Road.
  2. Drop off/pick up in designated areas as quickly as possible, while adhering to the 40km/ph speed limit. (Note: The grassed strip across from the College gates is a NO PARKING zone).
  3. Carpool for drop off/pick up where appropriate.
  4. Use pedestrian crossings at all times when moving to the opposite side of Carters Road.

Staff Car Park
All parents/carers are reminded that the Staff Carpark (third gate) is restricted to staff/contractors and deliveries. Families should not be using this space for drop off/pick-ups due to limited space and safety reasons.  

Please find attached information provided by the Central Coast Council.

Thank you for your support.
St Brigid’s Catholic College

HELP WANTED! – Year 11 Construction Work Placements Request

By | News | No Comments

Our Year 11 Students in VET Construction (pathways) need to connect with Trades in the profession and complete a week (35hrs) of work placement to experience realistic and contextual work as part of their course. The dates we have been allocated are Term 2 week 6 (June 3-7) and we have 12 students currently in the course.

We are looking for local businesses who are willing to take on a student for a week (or how long 35 hours is in working situations) but ideally, they will be exposed to the Construction industry. Our students are fully insured by the Catholic Church Insurance, and we can supply you with the documentation. Most students are still 16 and may be able to travel to you locally, however they will be covered by our travel insurance in vehicles to and from work sites.

We are seeking anyone in the Construction trades and hold the qualification, and able to take on a student for a week. It can be done outside these dates; it can be later in the year (it may even potentially be in the holidays). Could you please forward your details to the Teacher – Mr Mark Peterson mark.peterson@dbb.catholic.edu.au

PLEASE Note – students aren’t allowed to work at heights above 1.9m, confined spaces etc.

The following are the preferred trades.

Construction/Carpentry/
Cabinet maker/Joinery

Concreting
Landscaping Construction

Bricklayer
Tiler
Roof Plumber

Also applicable – Plumbing and potentially Electrical students in certain circumstances

Thank you.
