Samaritan Shines
Any students wishing to perform a song or other entertainment at our College's debut "Samaritan Shines" variety night are invited to audition!
"Samaritan Shines" will stage between 5.00-7.00pm at St Johns Campus on Tuesday 16th November, and provide a wonderful opportunity for students, staff and the Whyalla community to mingle and celebrate all the great things our College offers.
Any students wishing to participate in the entertainment programme should email our Band Director Alison Hams ali@alisonhams.com to discuss and schedule an audition.
Spaces are limited so spots will be granted on a first-in basis.
COVID vaccine in schools
You may have read in recent media announcements that a range of SA schools will offer the COVID vaccine during the school day. Samaritan College is one of those schools selected.
Today students received information and a consent form regarding the COVID vaccine, which is being offered to children aged 12 years and over. Students at Saint John's Campus have the opportunity to receive their first dose of this vaccination at school on Tuesday, November 9th, with their second dose being offered on Wednesday December 1.
The vaccine administered will be the Pfizer vaccine and the whole process is coordinated by HealthCare Australia with qualified staff on site and recovery areas for the students provided.
Please note that this is NOT compulsory and ONLY students that have returned the required consent form will receive the vaccination. Please note that consent must be provided by BOTH parents/legal guardians. If both parents cannot sign the form then please utilise alternative COVID vaccination options i.e. Whyalla Hospital.
It is very important that the consent form is returned by Friday November 5. If you do not want your child to participate then simply do not fill in the form. Copies of the consent form and the Information Sheet can be found on our website.
Please contact for any further information.
