Ms. Pattie and Mrs Cornelius' Year 9 PE class have begun two weeks of golf lessons at the Mooroopna Golf Club. The classes are being run by Darren Rogers, Mooroopna’s new golf professional. For the first lesson, the students had focused on the long game, and hitting the ball down the driving range. The second session will focus on the ‘short game’. This will involve the art of putting and getting yourself out of a bunker. The students had a great time, and demonstrated quite a bit of potential!
YEAR 8 HUMANITIES - ON TRIAL
Students in Year 8 participated in mock trials during their study into Civics and Citizenship. They have been learning about the how Government make laws and the role of Police. In class they had the opportunity to participate in a mock trial of one of the class members. Students enthusiastically took on the role of the Accused, The Judge, being members of the Jury, Witnesses, Prosecutor and Defence Lawyers. Students then learnt about the Koorie Court and explored the differences between Criminal Law and Civil Laws.
