YEAR 9 KEY INFORMATION: WEEK 7
Laptops and Laptop Bags
Students have been reminded this week in PG lessons and Community that they must transport their laptops in their laptop bags from class to class. If damage occurs and computers are not being transported in their bag, they may risk insurance not covering the claim. Please check with your child that they have a working laptop bag. New bags can be purchased at school.
Tuesday Sport
Each week, our Year 9 students participate in a Junior Sports Program. This provides an opportunity for all students to engage in physical activity, which plays an important role in supporting young people's physical and mental wellbeing.
Over the coming weeks, students will rotate through a program designed to prepare them for our Athletics Carnival - an important part of our Sports Program and a valuable opportunity for students to build house and community spirit.
We encourage all students to make thoughtful choices that contribute to a safe and inclusive environment for everyone during these sessions.
