St Bernard’s College Open Day
St Bernard’s College will be holding an open day on Saturday 29 May from 10:00 until 2:00. Sports teams will be competing on the college fields during the open day and subject departments will have displays and staff ready to answer any questions. The principal will give a brief address to groups of families at 11:00, 12:00 and 1:00.
The enrolment cycle for 2022 begins on the open day with enrolments closing off on Friday 9 July. Enrolment packs can be collected from the college that day. As the college has reached its maximum roll, it is important that enrolments are received by the close off date.
Over the last year, those travelling along Waterloo Road will have seen the construction of a new Library and Information Technology Centre. While the official opening won’t be until Tuesday 1 June, visitors to the open day can get a sneak preview and walk through the beautiful architecturally designed modern learning space.
