Term 3 will bring it's own challenges and excitement. We are preparing our Year 12 students for the Trial HSC Examinations, Year 11 move into the final term of their Year 11 studies culminating in exams in the final 2 weeks of the term. Some Year 12 students will also be completing HSC Performance and Practical Examinations throughout the term.

Western Sydney University Access Scholarship Program
On Thursday June 13 we celebrated the 25th graduation ceremony of students who completed the Western Sydney University Access Scholarship Program.
These successful students not only earned early entry to WSU but also secured an impressive $20,000 scholarship by completing one university subject during Terms 2-3 in Year 11.
We congratulate these students on their outstanding achievements and wish them well as they continue to pursue their dreams.

National Tree Day
Established in 1996, Planet Ark's National Tree Day has grown into Australia's largest community tree planting and nature care event. The program is a call to action for all Australians to get their hands dirty and give back to their community.
Each year, around 300,000 people volunteer their time to engage in environmental activities that educate Australians about the world around them.
The last Friday in July is dedicated to Schools Tree Day. Each year, thousands of schools participate nationwide in environmental activities that educate individuals about the world around them. Activities range from planting bush tucker gardens, building habitat for native wildlife, nature play and more.
This year Wyndham College will be participating in National Tree Day. We would like to thank Blacktown Council for generously donating 40 trees to help us get involved in this wonderful community project while also adding to the beautiful gardens we have here at Wyndham College.
