Chess Champs!

This week our Primary and Secondary students competed in the State Chess Competition. Both teams did very well.

Our Primary team finished in 4th position, with Jethro Sih finishing in 2nd overall. This achievement ranks them as the 4th best team out of the 107 schools who competed around the state.

Our Secondary team is now ranked 13th out of 53 schools who participated. This is an outstanding effort.

It has been a pleasure watching our students compete this year. We look forward to 2025!

Maker's Market

A big thank you to the many people who helped Makers Market 2024 be a big success!

We had a fantastic time, despite the drizzle, browsing stalls, making artworks, buying food, bidding on auction items, having our faces painted and so much more while our talented students provided amazing background tunes.

The new D – Block classrooms and undercover area was well utilised for the event with a great turn out from the school and wider community.

A special thank you to the Maker's Market committee who spent many months planning the event and recruiting others to help.

If you would like to join the committee to help organise the next Makers Market in 2026 (held every 2 years), please get in touch with me at martin.prins@scc.tas.edu.au

Summer Uniform

Term 4 is generally summer uniform time. However, given the variability of Tasmania’s weather, students and parents are free to determine whether summer or winter uniform is more appropriate on a given day up until the 30th November. In the final two weeks of term, with a number of special assemblies and events, it is required that all students are in summer uniform.

Stockings: Girls may wear skin-toned stockings with the girls’ summer uniform only. This should assist with warmth in variable weather and still conform with the uniform expectations.

Hats: School Hats are required at lunch time and during outdoor school activities in Term 4. Students must have a hat on their head during these times. Students without hats will be provided with alternative lunchtime activities. Hats are available from the uniform shop.
