Mentor Pastoral (Ag Club) 

The Agriculture Plot got a major upgrade this week thanks to the hard work and dedication of our Ag Club members. The team spent the afternoon out on the back ag plot installing our brand-new raised garden bed, and they certainly earned their keep!

With the raised bed built and ready to be filled, our next focus shifts to planting. Students will begin prepping seasonal crops to test out our new space and observe how the soil holds moisture heading into the warmer months.

Year 9 Science 

Year 9 Science students traded standard class notes for a hands-on epidemiology experiment to model the rapid spread of contagious diseases through a population.

Equipped with small cups filled with clear liquid, students moved around the room "swapping" fluid samples with three different classmates. While the liquids looked identical, one cup in each group contained a hidden, clear "pathogen".

Students then worked backward like real-world disease detectives, analysing interaction logs to trace the transmission chain and successfully identify Patient Zero.
