Year 10 Journalism Showcase

This year, EDSC introduced a new semester based subject, Year 10 Journalism.

Throughout this area of study, students have been studying effective interviewing,  reporting and editing skills in order to create their own media texts (both newspapers and podcasts).

Sourcing interesting news stories from our local school community, one recent assessment task involved students speaking to various teachers and synthesising these interviews into engaging news and magazine stories. The newsletter will be highlighting some of these to showcase the impressive reporting skills of our students, in addition to learning more about our talented staff members.  Refer to the below attached media reports.

Student Lunches

Just a reminder to parents that we are unable to deliver lunches to students during school time.  If your student has forgotten their lunch, it can be dropped in to the General Office but it is the student’s responsibility to come and collect it. 

Hot food is not suitable to be left at the office.  PLEASE NOTE:- Take-away food is not allowed during school hours.

Under no circumstances are students to be ordering take-away food to be delivered to the College.

Student Compass ID/Library/PTV  Cards

Please remind all students that they must carry their Student Compass ID/Library/PTV  Cards with them at all times.

ALL students must sign in and out with their card at The John Landy Centre (Senior School Building)when they are arriving late or leaving early for any reason. 

The cards are also used for any student photocopying that is done at school. The EDSC Student Compass ID/Library card can be used as ID for student PTV (Public Transport Victoria) travel. They are required to carry this card as student identification while travelling on public transport.

If a student loses their card, parents/guardians are able to re-order a replacement card via the Compass parent portal.
