YEAR 9

Year 9 students completed their Morrisby career profiles earlier this term and are now starting to participate in career interviews. During these interviews students are gaining an insight into potential career options that are tailored to their individual interests and subject strengths.

Students will also be participating in the Geelong Tertiary Futures Program early next term. This program will provide students with the opportunity to experience different forms of education in an area/topic specific to students interests. To enrol and participate in the program students will need to obtain their USI (Unique Student Identifier) and complete the subject selection form posted on their google classrooms.

YEAR 8 SCIENCE

Year 8 students have finished their unit on light and have turned their attention to energy. They began the topic with a practical investigation into energy transfer making and testing paper cup telephones. The students found that thick strings work better than thin strings and that the sound actually travels quite a long way. It was also fun to cross the strings over and get 4-way conversations happening.
