The Edit

Snow is on the mountains around us and there is debate in the corridors over what type of ski season it will be this year.  School jumpers/jackets are now definitely necessary - lots of shivering kids this morning!

This week we farewell Thai exchange student Noina and talk about the benefits of student exchanges - see our Principal's Report and Student Exchange page for more on this.

In our class news we can see some finished designs by our Art - Decorative and Functional class.  

In our student news page we have advertised out School Play - this year it is 'Transylvania Dreaming' and is on the 17-18th May.  Tickets can be purchased from the Office. Thank you to Zoe Gray for her poster.

We have some great photos from the recent Athletics Carnival - thank you to photographer Rosemary Oldis.  

Read about staff member Emma Redmond and how she would communicate with aliens in our staff page.  

Year 12 students might be interested in reading the careers page and the mid-year swot options available at the University of Melbourne.  In careers, there is also info on an upcoming free webinar - How to Help Get (and Keep!) Your Child Motivated.

Last week our years 7-9 students completed a Study Skills and Time Management session to develop and improve their general study/life skills.    We have included the booklets below in case this is something you would like to encourage or discuss at home.

Whether we are young or old, stories connect us and add meaning to our lives.– Arnold Zable

In the library we have some lovely new books on the shelves - check out the blurbs in the library page to see if there is anything there that might interest you/your student.

Stay warm and enjoy the read.  Have a great week.
