Year 9 Captains' Report
Welcome back to term 4!
We’ve started off the term with many exciting events. These events include; Eastern Region Athletics, VCAL Colour Run and the October Arts Exhibition.
A number of students participated in the regional athletics at Knox Athletics Track last Friday. It was so great to see some amazing athletes compete for a spot at the state level, which will be happening this week at Lakeside Stadium at Albert Park.
On Tuesday 15 October, we had 150 people participate in the VCAL Colour Run. Each participant donated a gold coin, to raise money towards the Breast Cancer Foundation. It was great to see such happy smiles and white clothes turn bright and colourful.
This month the October Arts Exhibition OPENED. An exhibition of creative artwork, clay work and folio pieces are out for you to look at, in the Performing Arts Centre foyer. The artworks that are being displayed, have been completed by students across all year levels.
We hope you had a great holiday break and enjoy getting back to school for the final term this year!
