SHAPING CONNECTION || As part of his Unit 1 Art Making and Exhibiting studies, Year 10 student Oskar Edwardes created a meaningful artwork exploring identity through the staff who have shaped and supported him throughout his learning journey at Beaumaris Secondary College.

The piece highlights the strong relationships that are built across our college community and the important role connection, support and belonging play in helping students grow in confidence and develop their sense of self.

Oskar’s work is a thoughtful reflection of the positive impact that teachers and school experiences can have on a young person’s journey. Well done, Oskar, on such a personal and powerful piece of work.

HEALTHY MEALS IN ACTION || As part of their integrated cooking project, our Year 12 VCE Vocational Major students designed and prepared a healthy meal tailored to the needs of a case study person with a specific dietary requirement.

Students researched dietary needs, selected appropriate recipes, costed ingredients, prepared and cooked their meals, and reflected on both the final dish and the skills they developed throughout the process.

This hands-on project combined nutrition, planning, budgeting and practical cooking skills, helping students apply their learning in a real-world context.

CHEMICAL CHANGE PBL || As part of their BEST Project Based Learning task, our Year 8 students designed and conducted their own scientific investigations exploring chemical change. From developing original research questions and hypotheses to planning methods, identifying variables and recording observations, students led every stage of the investigation process. Through this hands-on learning experience, students developed their scientific thinking, problem-solving and experimental skills while investigating real-world chemical reactions.
