Junior School Report

This  Wintery term has been very busy with assessments and online learning. Students have continued to conduct themselves well and show great resilience. 

Term 3 Progress Reports have been completed and Year 7 will participate with Online Parent Teacher Interviews In Week 10. 

Year 8 Parents attended an online Parent Information Evening in August with their child to learn about selecting Year 9 Electives and we had a great turnout.  

Year 8 classes have participated in an Indigenous STEM Design Workshop- students interacted with mentors form Melbourne University to learn about indigenous sustainability practices. They then applied critical and creative thinking to design a sustainable fishing process.  

School Holidays have approached us yet again.... 

Here are some activities to think about to keep busy in the Holiday Period.  

1. Go  for a walk with the pet dog or a bike ride. A great way to get out in the fresh air and enjoy the sunshine and exercise.
2. Have a movie afternoon great for a rainy day. Rent a couple of good movies, make some popcorn and snuggle up with blankets and enjoy the movies.
3. Cook some special treats or family favourites for dinner.
4. Smile! Get the camera out and take some photos, download them on the computer and create a slide show.
5. Do some Gardening or make a herb garden pot, they are fantastic and useful too
6. Write and create a play or short story, see who is great at drama, acting and writing.
7.  Play board games Monopoly, Scrabble, Jenga, Hungry Hippos,  Cards and more if there are a few of you have a tournament.
8. Do a Jigsaw puzzle with your family, set up a special area and let everyone help - the harder the better.
9. Have Fun! 

Have a great Holiday with your families and rest up. We look forward to seeing you all next term.
