EAGER FAMILIES FLOCK TO OPEN DAY

An estimated 500 people took the opportunity to learn more about APC during the college’s hugely successful Open day in the first week of May.

Families with primary school children were eager to tour the college and speak to teachers about the curriculum and specialist programs.

Four campuses were open – Danks St, 40 Bay St, Studio 120 and Pickles St – and APC staff and students were on hand to answer questions and conduct tours.

The main campus at Danks St was a focal point of the day, and families were treated to bands in the courtyard, science experiments, maths activities and games, and drama performances in the library.

The Hospitality Club kept everyone’s energy levels up by baking and selling a variety of treats to guests throughout the afternoon.

A highlight was the address by Principal Steve Cook to more than 300 people in the Danks St gymnasium.

It was a fantastic day and showcased the incredible passion of APC staff and students.
