Indonesian Word of the Week

To help support our Indonesian program across the school, we will be doing the ‘Indonesian Word of the Week’.  It is displayed in every classroom across the school each week and used in general discussions between students and teachers. Perhaps you can then try and integrate them into your conversations at home as much as possible.

Masterchef Invitational

Last week, two of our students; Ela Mulayim and Will Bradley, took part in the NGSC Masterchef Invitational. The event was created to celebrate the opening of NGSC's brand new state-of-the-art kitchens. Students with a passion for cooking were encouraged to participate.

 Ela and Will were paired up with senior Hospitality and Patisserie students and learnt new skills in a number of workshops throughout the day before competing in a ‘Mystery Box’ challenge.

 Ben Shewry, founder of Attica Restaurant, which was named in the Top 20 Restaurants in the World in 2018 was the celebrity judge. 

Ela and Will did such a wonderful job that they were awarded the inaugural winners, with each receiving a medal for their efforts and a starring role int he Geelong Addy. Congratulations again to our two budding superstar chefs.

Captain's Comment

This week, on Friday, the ⅚ girls in the A netball team will be playing at the Geelong Arena as part of the next round of local school sport. Good luck to all of you involved.

Great job to Batesford for winning a free excursion to Livewire Park. The Batesford crew made a great video that went on the BAY FM website.

Now onto Athletics. Well done to everyone that participated out Athletics Day, especially to GREEN HOUSE on winning it.
