IntroductionPresentation Night aims to celebrate the full array of life at Notre

student’s accomplishments in academic achievement,
application to study, the arts, service and leadership.
Unfortunately, due to COVID-19 restrictions, we are unable to
gather for Presentation Night. However, despite the challenges
that COVID-19 has presented to student learning and the
broader College community, our students give us every
reason to celebrate a hope-filled future.
At Notre Dame College, we endeavour to educate the whole
person; the hearts, minds and hands of our young people.
Our students are empowered to discover and develop their
gifts and talents. We want our students to be passionate about
what they do, to be the best they can be, not just for
themselves alone, but to make a difference in the world and
the lives of others.
A Notre Dame College education not only gives our students
knowledge, but also empowers them to be better people and,
in doing so, make the world just that little better!
Regards,
John Cortese,Principal Notre Dame College
