Cely Malki After School Program
Commencing Monday 12 February 2024

We are delighted to be commencing the Cely Malki After School Program for 2024 on Monday 12 February 2024. For new students and parents, the Program is kindly funded by Mr Albert Malki and Ms Sandra Malki, esteemed grandparents of Emanuel students. The Program is named and run in honour of Mr Malki’s late sister, Cely, who placed very high value on children, education and inclusivity. We are grateful to the Malkis for their on-going support for another year.

This successful program is open to any students from Years 5-12, who would like a structured environment in which to receive additional help with their learning and/or to complete homework, projects and Performances of Understanding (PoUs). Teachers and recent alumni of the School are available to assist with the above. The staff circulate to monitor ongoing study and to assist with any queries, questions or lack of understanding, and to suggest improvements and students collaborate when appropriate.
