Senior School News 

Upper Secondary (Years 9-10)

We would like to welcome everyone back for Term 2 and share some exciting updates from the Year 9/10 cohort.

The students have settled back into school very well and have made a positive start to the term. It has been fantastic to see them working hard each day, following our classroom systems and routines, and showing a great attitude towards their learning.

This term, we are excited to begin a new focus in Maths, where students will be developing their addition and subtraction skills through practical and engaging activities. We will also continue building our reading and spelling knowledge through our phonics program, helping students grow in confidence and independence.

We are also thrilled to launch our café program this term. Students will be preparing Chinese-style cuisine and serving staff each Thursday. This program will provide wonderful opportunities for students to build confidence, teamwork, communication and hospitality skills.

In addition, we are looking forward to continuing our Travel Training Program. Last week, students finished the term with successful visits to the State Library, South Melbourne Market, Preston Market, Queen Victoria Market and Larissa Reserve. These experiences continue to support independence, community access and real-life learning skills.

We are looking forward to another busy and successful term ahead.

Thank you for your continued support.
