Donations Please

Throughout Term 4, Campbell Corbett and Tori Talbett are gathering pet food for animals in need. Donations will go to the Ballarat Animal Shelter. There will be a box placed in each Form room for you to place your donations in. All types of pre-packaged pet food for dogs and cats is acceptable, including cans and bags. We will also accept zip-lock bags filled with pet food from home.

BSC would appreciate donations of old fish tanks for the school Science department as we are currently in short supply. Any size will do and donations can be left at the front office.

Assistance Required

VCAL student Ethan Keenan is undertaking a project to boost Beaufort and surrounds' blood donations with Australian Red Cross Lifeblood. Participants will be required to register with Australian Red Cross Lifeblood and join the Beaufort Secondary College team. Then it's as simple as making an appointment to donate!

Who can donate blood? Anyone who weighs more than 50kg, is in good health and who is aged between 18 and 75.

Why donate blood? A new blood donor is needed every 4 minutes and according to Australian Red Cross Lifeblood, Australia has just two day’s supply.

2023 School Captains

Last week, students who applied for the positions of School Captain or Sports Captain delivered their speeches during School Assembly, each listing the qualities they would bring to the role and the potential changes they would make if elected. Among the candidates capabilities', were some imaginative and interesting ideas for improvements to the school and possibilities for the future.

Some of the ideas on offer were; planting more trees between G Block and the Student Centre to better establish our green space, conducting more House Sporting initiatives (with a wider variety of sports) and sprucing up our House Swimming and Athletics days to encourage better involvement.

The 2023 School Captains will be announced in the coming weeks. Best of luck to all entrants.

Rememberance Day

On Friday we held a Rememberance Day Ceremony to honour our fallen soldiers and those who served in our armed forces alongside them. Our potential 2023 Student Leaders delivered speeches, relating what the day means for them and paying their respects on behalf of our School Community. We would like to commend all students on their superb behaviour throughout the ceremony.

Special thanks to Year 9 student Savanna Elliott for the photos
