Hollows

Term 3

Term 3 has been a month filled with exciting events and achievements here in Hollows House and we are thrilled to share some of the highlights with you. 

First and foremost, we extend our heartfelt congratulations to our previous House Leader Laura Brock, on the birth of her beautiful daughter Quinn. We share in the joy of this new addition to her family and eagerly await the day she returns.  

Our school spirit was in full display during the Inter House Competition organized by our dedicated Mentor Leaders, with special thanks to Eesha for her outstanding leadership. Students from all houses came together to engage in friendly competition, showcasing their talents in a variety of activities such as Basketball, Charades, and the ever-entertaining "Guess the Song." The camaraderie and enthusiasm on display were truly remarkable, reminding us of the importance of unity and teamwork within our school community. 

We take great pride in nurturing the academic talents of our students - In a recent House Assembly, we took the opportunity to acknowledge and celebrate our high-achieving NAPLAN students. Their dedication and hard work have not only brought honour to themselves but have also raised the bar for excellence within our school. We applaud their achievements and encourage all students to strive for their personal best. 

As we approach the end of the Term, we would like to extend our best wishes to our Year 12 students who will be embarking on their practice exams in Week 10. This is a significant step towards their final examinations, and we have every confidence in their abilities. We are here to support and guide them through this crucial period, and we believe that their dedication and determination will lead to outstanding results. 

As always, we are grateful for the continued support of our parents and the hard work of our students and staff. Together, we make Hollows a place of excellence and achievement. 

Thank you for being a part of our wonderful school community. We look forward to more exciting developments and successes next Term. Have an enjoyable and safe break.
