Junior Years Report 

Junior Subschool Celebration

It has been wonderful to see our Year 7–9 students make such a positive start to Term 4! It is hard to believe we are already heading into Week 6, with plenty of exciting opportunities and important milestones still ahead. From our upcoming revision and exam weeks to end-of-year celebrations and the Individual Personal Development Program in the final weeks of term, there is certainly lots to look forward to!

We have loved celebrating the many students who have received Success Passes for consistently demonstrating our College values of Commitment, Excellence, Respect and Teamwork. These positive acknowledgements recognise the everyday behaviours that contribute to a safe, supportive and successful learning environment for everyone.

At our recent cohort assemblies, we also recognised students who have achieved an attendance rate of 90% or higher. We know that regular attendance plays an important role in student learning, engagement and connection with school. Thank you to all of our families for your ongoing support in encouraging students to attend school every day and make the most of their learning opportunities.

As we move towards the end of the year, it is important that we continue to maintain high expectations and finish the term positively. We encourage all students to remain committed to their learning, approach upcoming assessments with a positive mindset and continue to demonstrate our Term 4 theme of Kindness. This means looking out for their peers, showing care and respect towards others, and remembering to look after themselves during what can be a busy time of year.

There is still so much to celebrate, achieve and enjoy before we finish the school year. Let's continue to make the most of every opportunity and finish 2026 on a high!

Best wishes,

The Junior Subschool Team

Year 8 English Narative

Year 8 English students have been working on their narrative writing across terms 3 and 4. This year, students wrote stories to the theme of ‘play’ with options to explore writing about sport, music, acting or games. Two students from 8D have generously agreed to allow me to share their wonderful stories with our Lara community. Please enjoy!
