We are thrilled to announce that our Yr 9/10 Readers Cup team has once again proven their literary prowess by narrowly clinching victory in the recent regional competition. This talented group of students - comprising of Macy Durrand, Grace Folino-Gallo, Pepita Prettejohn and Jem Williams – are no strangers to success. They are the current State Champions and will be heading to Brisbane in early September to defend their title. Their teamwork, dedication, and love of reading have brought pride to our school, and we wish them the very best as they prepare for the next stage.

 

A big thank you to our second team for their valiant effort and to all the student helpers on the day. Thank you also to Mrs Assenheim for her invaluable help throughout the day.
