Junior School

The Junior School has been once again busy with many students involved in many events outside the classroom.

Inside the classroom students have been focussing on finishing off their final assessment tasks for the year, ready to be placed on their reports. All assessments tasks are due by Thursday 1st December. Please check in with your child to see if they have completed everything.

A huge congratulations to our Yr 7 boys volleyball team who won the state championships last week, it was a brilliant achievement and the Junior school students were able to watch them win the final game thanks to a live stream that was set up back at school.

Good luck to our Yr 7 boys table tennis team who compete this week in the state championships.

Junior School production members have been busily preparing and rehearsing for their upcoming performance nights. We look forward to watching all of our Junior school students performing in the shows.

Our student leaders have been busy working with the 2023 Yr 7 students and parents this week. Thanks to ….. for helping to run the small schools afternoon, giving valuable insight into the best way to prepare and transition into yr 7. Well done to everyone.
