Fundraising is underway in Callistemon. We are supporting Wildlife Victoria this year, as the students are keen to support the animals and wildlife that have been affected in the recent bushfires in Victoria.

We welcomed our Year 7 students at the start of the year. Each Year 7 student was able to connect with other students in the House to help them get to know each other and to learn about the House and the school.

As part of the start of the year, we welcomed Year 7 parents in to the House to meet teachers and learn about the best ways to support the students. We were also pleased to see so many parents and students attend the Parent Teacher Interviews this term.  Students have set Learning Goals to support their own learning throughout the year and these were shared at the interviews.

Many of our students have been working so hard this term on Chorales. Our Year 12 students and leaders have brought together students from across the House and they have been rehearsing and practicing with energy and enthusiasm. We thank Ms. Hipwell, Ms. Evans and Mr. Christoffelz for their support.

Congratulations to all students who participated in Term 1 sport. Particular thanks to all students who supported and swam at the Swimming Sports. Congratulations to all Callistemon students who came third overall - an outstanding effort.

We are looking forward to Term 2.
