Our students had the privilege of meeting the Minister for Skills and Tertiary Education, and Minister for Sport, Multiculturalism, Seniors and Veterans, The Hon. Geoffrey Lee.

Every year, since 2014, Al-Faisal College has been participating in the Respect, Understanding and Acceptance (RUA) workshop held by the NSW Jewish Board of Deputies. This is a great opportunity for our students to meed year 9 students from other schools with different faith, culture and religion. The students get along with comfort and ease, they all participate in a number of group and pair activities.

 

As part of promoting good will and charity, Al-Faisal College students visited the Gallipoli Home & Respite Centre. Students had the chance to share stories, make Eid cards and gift the elderly with an Eid gift.

We were delighted to welcome Year 12 students from Coffs Harbour Christian Community School to build bridges and strengthen ties. Students had an opportunity to learn more about the cultural customs and rituals, discuss similarities and differences between each religion and understand the importance of acceptance. Al-Faisal College students from the Hospitality class prepared an amazing lunch and students from both schools had an opportunity to speak about what a typical day at each school looked like and commonalities shared.

Kindergarten Graduation Day marks the conclusion of the first year of schooling for our Kindergarten students before they progress onto Stage 1, Year 1. Students celebrate their Graduation Ceremony by wearing a beautiful Royal Blue Graduation Gown and hats. They also move the tassel of their hats to the side once they have officially graduated.

Over 100 students from Years 3-6 will have an opportunity to spend the day at Macquarie University as part of STEM week to investigate different aspects and elements of gears/planes/chemistry.

Over the past two terms all the Al-Faisal campuses have organised fund raising drives such as pizza days, Abaya days and the most recent and unique "Come dressed as a farmer day". Teachers, students and the School Board have given generously raising a total of $15000 which was presented to the State President and Vice President of the Country Women’s Association (CWA) during the Assembly. Ms Annette Turner, State President of the CWA, addressed the assembly and said that the donation will go to the CWA, Disaster Relief Fund which gives 100% of all monies directly to family farmers affected by the drought. The CWA is in touch with families who are struggling and they assist by paying for basic necessities such as groceries, electricity bills and children's needs.
