3D Printing is Taking Shape

 

The recent installation of a 3D printer in the library is proving to be a most worthwhile investment, operating almost non-stop. Staff and students alike are finding the printing process intriguing to watch and the finished items amazing.  Students can choose to create their own design or download free designs from sites such as thingiverse and tinkercad.

Killester Cup Festivities

Giddy Up Girls! The inaugural Killester Cup will be held in the Library on Tuesday 29 October at lunch time. Leading up to this event, students have been having great fun decorating and naming their (hobby)horse. They have also been making a hat or fascinator to wear on race day. The horse will move along the race track when the jockey correctly answers a horse question (the jockey may consult with the owner, trainer or strapper). Get together with your friends and fill in your entry form at the Library Service Desk to be first past the post!

Book Lists Available Online

This year we are being more environmental with regards to our booklist distribution. All booklists are now available online at Campion website. Visit https://www.campion.com.au/ and order using the code MG5R. There will be no paper book lists distributed but we continue to offer the service of a pickup day - 17 January 2020 - at the school. Parents also still have the option to pay for their orders by credit card or cash on collection.   Girls will find a copy of the book lists in their year level areas identifying which books can be bought or sold secondhand and the suggested prices.
