Celebrations of Learning and Community
Year 12 Theatre Studies 'Clue' Production
Congratulations to our first-ever Year 12 Theatre Studies class on their performance of CLUE! Our students produced all aspects of the production from direction, lights, costumes and sets, and their show ran last night in front of our community. The production showed the immense talent our students have, as well as their love for performing. Well done!
Attitude to School Survey
The Attitude to School Survey begins next week, and it’s a valuable opportunity for every student to share their experiences, ideas, and perspectives. Collecting student voice plays a crucial role in shaping our Annual Implementation goals, helping us understand what’s working well and where we can strengthen our approach. Student feedback guides our efforts to build a more connected, supportive, and positive College environment, one where every student feels a sense of belonging and pride in their school community. By taking part, they will be directly contributing to strengthening college student voice and agency.
What’s Been Happening in Year 8 – Peer Connect
A focus group of Year 8 students has been participating in the Peer Connect program led by Year Level Leader Adam Carrazza. Students meet weekly to build their social skills, develop resilience, strengthen communication strategies and practice teamwork in a supportive and inclusive environment.
The program is designed to support a small group of our students with additional learning and/or social needs, while also fostering positive peer relationships, confidence and student voice. It has been fantastic to see students engaging in collaborative activities, supporting one another and continuing to grow their confidence each week.
We are incredibly proud of the effort, enthusiasm and connections being built through the Peer Connect program so far this term.
