This year we have had an awesome time in Year 7. We have enjoyed all sporting events, including; basketball, tennis and many more. We have enjoyed all excursions and felt much relief when we completed all our Common Assessment Tasks.

We thank our teachers for making our first year of of high school a major success. We have really enjoyed Year 7.

We hope the new Year 7’s have a smooth transition into Lilydale High School. We wish everybody a safe holiday and a Merry Christmas.
