Year 9 iSTEM
Monday 17 August 2020, Miss Reynen’s Year 9 iSTEM class participated in a game trial of an Environmental Video game, based on the sustainable practices of water on the Central Coast. This game is being developed by the Central Coast Council and our students today were thrilled to be able to provide direct feedback on different features of the game.
We would like to thank Paul Clemens, Environmental Education Officer, Environment Education Central Coast Council for giving us the opportunity to participate in the video games development.
Added to this, the final game developed by the Central Coast Council will be embedded in course programming for Term 1, Year 8 Applied Learning in 2021. Students will be exploring environmental sustainability and consumption of water on the central coast for future generations.

Max Potential 2020
Congratulations to Imogen Street and Brandon Willmette.
On Wednesday 2 September, both Imogen and Brandon completed Max Potential 2020.
They were able to celebrate their achievement via Zoom with the other students around the Central Coast who also completed this leadership opportunity. Brandon was also given the honour of thanking the organisers and the supporters of the program on behalf of all the students involved.
During the day all the students were able to share their Max Potential experience and the details of their Community Service Project. Henry Kendall High continues to be a proud supporter of this program and we are as always grateful to the Max Potential team, the Gosford RSL and all the other sponsors for providing a program that gives so much to our local community.
