Discovery Night

On Wednesday 20th March, our school opened its doors to prospective families for an unforgettable evening of exploration and discovery. Discovery Night, our annual Open Night event, provided an opportunity for visitors to witness firsthand the vibrant learning community that thrives within our walls. Staff and students graciously volunteered their time to showcase the exceptional programs and opportunities available at our school.

The evening kicked off with a brief presentation, welcoming guests and providing an overview of our school's strengths, values and academic offerings. From there, visitors embarked on a journey through various stations, each highlighting a different aspect of our curriculum and extracurricular activities.

Our budding chefs dazzled guests with live cooking demonstrations, showcasing their culinary skills and sharing their passion for cooking. The sound of music filled the LRC as guests were treated to captivating instrumental performances by our talented musicians. In the Design Centre, visitors delved into the world of science, technology, engineering and mathematics as our Design Engineering Academy students showcased their work.

The lively vibe from our staff and students all evening mirrored the spirited atmosphere of our school community. Prospective families left Discovery Night inspired and impressed by the breadth and depth of opportunities available at our school.

As we reflect on the success of Discovery Night, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to all staff and students who volunteered their time and talents to make this event possible. Your dedication and passion for our school are truly commendable.

To our prospective families, thank you for joining us on this journey of discovery. We hope that you were able to catch a glimpse of the extraordinary experiences that await your child at our school. We look forward to welcoming you into our community and embarking on a shared journey of learning and growth.
