Year 7/8

Transition and Community Engagement Program

As part of our Transition and Community Engagement program at CESC, select Year 6 students from Wilandra Rise Primary School were welcomed to join our students in an Art Therapy session. Art Therapy uses arts processes such as painting, collage and free association drawing to create meaning, rather than focussing on the end product. Art therapy can be helpful for students who cannot verbalise their feelings due to developmental or cognitive conditions or challenges with social skills. Our CESC students worked with the Year 6's and for those that will be attending the College next year now have a group of mentor students with like interests they can connect with. Thank you to the Connectedness & Engagement team for their work putting together the resources and transport to facilitate this event.

Year 8 Eric Agyeman Guest Speaker

On Tuesday 21st of May, Eric Agyeman spoke to our Year 8 students. Eric’s story had a profound impact on our students as he spoke about words either being seeds or bullets. Seeds that plant positivity and build others up or bullets that hurt and tear other people

 down.

Casey 360 Bus

The Casey 360 bus was well attended by our Year 8 students. The Casey 360 Bus is a mobile youth information centre for our junior students. Staffed by two youth workers young people can access information, support, games, technology and sports equipment.

Student Leadership 

Throughout this Term, we have been working with our Student Leaders to further develop their leadership skills and make important decisions about our End of Year Reward for Year 8.

During Term Two, the students have; created and implemented a survey for our Year Level to complete, looked over and discussed the results, looked into budget and cost and came to a final decision about our End of Year Reward.

We are really proud of how our leaders have led this discussion and represented themselves and the Year Level.

Our work will continue into next Semester, there is more to come for our Leaders and the Year Level!
