From the Senior Leadership
The start of term 3 has been quite a busy start to the term, last week the staff, parent and student community had the wonderful opportunity of watching our HSC Dance and Drama students perform in their showcase nights. It was wonderful to be able to see our students' talent shine centre stage in works they have been collaborating, developing and rehearsing since the start of Year 12 in Term 4 of 2023. The showcase nights provide a fantastic learning opportunity for our students to receive final feedback prior to performing for the HSC markers which will be in the coming weeks. Later in August, we will have the Music and Visual Arts showcases and warmly welcome our Chisholm community to attend and support our students in their learning opportunities.
We have been celebrating the successes of the Olympics throughout the week, today in pastoral classes homerooms completed in a mini Chisholm Olympics which culminated with a game of dodgeball staff v’s teachers. Congratulations to the teachers who had won in what was a close game. The Olympics at times can be a powerful symbol of determination and resilience, with what some athletes require to overcome during their Olympic journey. This determination and resilience can demonstrate the similarities that are required for learning: adversity, commitment to goals, perseverance as well as mental and emotional resilience. The Olympics is a great reminder for our students of what can happen when determination and resilience is consistent and evident in their day to day learning -- SUCCESS!
