Macleod College
Description
A State Prep - Year 12 school, 14km from the city centre in Melbourne's leafy northern suburbs. On behalf of the Macleod College Community I would like to extend a warm welcome to you and your family.
We are proud of our students. We encourage and support them to achieve beyond their expectations, and to reach goals they might not have thought possible.
Our staff are committed to ensuring that the values and traditions our community holds dear are nurtured in our students, and we share the courage to challenge the status quo and to be innovative in our teaching.
We strive to maintain high academic standards as well as promoting social and emotional wellbeing. Macleod College provides a creative, stimulating and vibrant learning space as well as a comfortable and inviting environment where students feel at home.

Last week our Grade 3/4 students completed their small business projects with a wonderful Market Day. They have learned about setting up a small business, product development and testing, advertising, and understanding your customer. They ran market stalls and sold their products to their fellow students. Many stalls sold out completely, it was a great success and an excellent way to learn. Well done Grade 3/4!

Our Twilight Concert last night was sensational. Wonderful atmosphere, excellent performances and beautiful weather. Huge thanks to our dedicated instrumental music staff, Parent Music Committee members, sound tech guys, and of course the wonderful music students for their hard work in making this event such a success. The concert was so good that some people forgot to collect their Mangoes.... please pop in to the library on Monday for them. These photos were taken on a mobile phone so they are a bit fuzzy but there will be more photos available soon - please check with the library staff for details. Special thanks to the Watsonia North Primary School parents and students who joined us. The combined violins were amazing! (We have lovely photos which we will send to WNPS for you :) )

On Wednesday, the 17th August, the Year 11 and 12 German classes departed for a three-day German Immersion Camp. Upon arrival, the Year 11s got straight into work. Over the three days, we worked on the theme of Fairytales in order to write our own fairytale (in German) for an upcoming assessment. Apart from working very hard, we were also able to have a lot of fun! We watched a German film, learned Latin dancing and had a German dance party. We all thoroughly enjoyed it and are very excited for next year’s camp. Courtney Price
