Year 7 News

What a fantastic start to the school year it has been for our Year 7 cohort! Our students have now settled into Secondary School life well and we are receiving so many positive reports from all of their teachers with how well they are going. Let’s keep it up Year 7’s! 

Year 7 BBQ

Thank you to everyone who attended the Year 7 BBQ and the SEQTA information session last night. It was great to see so many of you at the school and getting to know the Year 7 staff at Horsham College. Thank you to all the staff that helped on the night and to our college leaders for cooking the BBQ. 

Swimming

Well done to all the students who attended and participated at the Horsham College swimming sports on the 13th of February. Students need to continue to support these whole school events if they want to see them continue into the future. A huge thank you to Jase, Josh and Brooklyn for organising such a fun day for our school community.

Student Absences

We value your child’s education, every day of school counts. If your child is absent from school, we request that you contact the school either via the Absence Hotline on 5381 7200, through SeQta, or with a signed note handed to form group teachers.

Camp

The Year 7 Camp will be held at the Grampians Retreat in Dunkeld between the 23th-25th March  and 25th-27th March. During this week, students will have the opportunity to partake in a number of adventure activities such as flying fox, giant swing, mountain bike riding and more! Please make sure to return your camp forms by Friday 6th March. 

Class Spotlight – 7B Home Eco

In Home Eco last week 7B made mini quiches! Students learnt how to use pastry, sauté ingredients and use the stove top and oven to produce mini quiches. 

Just a reminder for students in cooking classes, to please remember to bring a suitable size container and cutlery to each of their classes.

Values 

As a cohort we have celebrated some students who have received a high number of value awards throughout the start of the school term. Students can receive a value award from any teacher for showing care, character, commitment, or collaboration while at school. 

We were able to award these students with a canteen voucher for their efforts so far.

Congratulations to: Tyson Offer, Hamish Mills, Audrie Lacey and Will Abrahams

We look forward to congratulating more students throughout 2026!
