High Achiever's Award Assembly - 2 February

 

Our College gathered together for the first time to celebrate our High Achievers from 2023. We heard from both our VCE Dux, Mary, and our VCE - VM Top Student, Madison, who both encouraged our current students to have courage.

 

Mary, our VCE Dux, said in her speech, I encourage you to have the courage to try new things, the courage to relish in the excitement of the unknown, and most importantly, have faith in yourself, your potential, and your ability to be resilient in the pursuit of your happiness and success.

 

We thank our High Achievers and their families for joining us on such a joyous occasion.

Year 11 Textiles - 6 February

Year 11 Product Design and Technology students started their Unit 1 studies by working in groups and getting creative. They were required to design and produce a paper Gown. Students were required to work cooperatively together to investigate techniques that would help create specifically tailored looks that would suit their final design. Students prototyped certain folding and cutting techniques on a ¼ scale mannequin to ensure their desired outcome could be achieved. Each group did well to complete their look quickly, showcasing their attention to detail and ability to work collaboratively within a group setting.

 

The team skills they have established throughout this task will carry over into their Unit 1 final garment, as they will continue to work as a team to produce a range of garments tailored to a specific theme.
