Providing a Term's Notice
Families are reminded that the College requires one term’s notice of any move to another school or learning environment (please note that international enrolments require two terms’ notice). There are several reasons for this notice period. Firstly, budgets are set on current numbers, and, as the annual budget is set in September, we need to ensure that we are calculating costs and student numbers accurately. Secondly, once school returns in January, we are unlikely to make up numbers of any students who choose to leave without providing the required notice.
Please ensure that if your daughter is leaving at the end of 2024, you have informed the Registrar (registrar@stellamaris.nsw.edu.au) by the end of Term 3.

Beach2Beach Success
Thank you to everyone who joined the Stella team for last Sunday's Beach2Beach. With a total of 216 Stella students, staff, family and friends - forming a ‘sea of pink’ - Stella smashed our own previous ‘biggest team’ record.
Stella won overall largest group and largest school group at the event and received a total of $6K in prize money, all of which will all be donated to local legend Mike Pawley’s ‘Happy Days’ charity (a charity that supports children at the Happy Days Village School located in Siem Reap Cambodia).
We also had some incredible individual results in the actual run with Ms Wickham winning the 14km female event and student Pip Q coming 3rd in the 6km event.
