Marian College, 2 Lydia Street, Northcote

On Friday 1 November 2024 all ākonga (students) are required to attend an orientation day at Marian College.

This is for our new Year 9 2025 ākonga only. Our peer support leaders and staff have planned activities to help welcome our new ākonga. It is a first chance to meet others and feel comfortable about coming to Marian.

Parents, please drop your child off at the drop off zone/turning circle at the front entrance of our school no earlier than 9.00am for a 9.15am start. You can pick them up again from here at 2.30pm.

This day will also include some testing which will give us information to assist us with our planning for 2025. The Marian Foundation Scholarship is awarded based on the outcome of the entrance test results.

Students are to bring along a blue or black pen and drink bottle but do NOT need to bring a calculator, or food. Lunch and morning tea will be provided - please advise of any dietary requirements. They may also bring a mobile phone but this should be in a named plastic bag.
