Hobart Rivulet Ecostudy Walk - Year 7 Connections Day

Backhouse and Oats: Friday 8 March 

Fry and Penn : Friday 15 March 

Mott and Walker:  Friday 22 March  

 

Students will be participating in a day-long walk along the Hobart Rivulet.  The day will have an environmental science focus. Students will conduct environmental surveys at 4 - 5 sites along the Hobart Rivulet.  Students should arrive at school at the usual time and will travel by bus to Strickland Falls. Students will be transported back to school after pick-up from Molle Street at the end of the day for usual dismissal times.

 

On the day, students should wear sports’ uniform including a hat and a waterproof coat.  Students should also bring any personal medications, and sunscreen. A change of shoes or gumboots is also required. Students will need recess snacks, lunch and a drink. As this trip is a full day in the field, please ensure that students have packed plenty to eat and drink.  A clipboard and pencil will also be required.

 

Please contact Nicola Collins, if you require any further information.

Middle School House Book Donations - Library Aid International

To show gratitude for the wonderful new library space at the Middle School, the Student House Leaders are launching a book donation drive for Library Aid International. Library Aid International Inc is a not-for-profit, non-government organisation which provides used books and educational materials to improve literacy and educational outcomes and life opportunities for children in disadvantaged schools in developing countries. 

 

Donations can include books for students aged 3 - 16, educational books and general school supplies. Each House has set up a collection point in the Middle School library, and the race is on to see which House can collect the most books to donate! 

 

Donations can be made until 15 March to the Middle School Library. If you didn’t find time to clean out the bookshelf over the holiday break, now is your chance!
