Junior School
Dear Parents and Carers,
I wanted to take a moment to highlight one of the significant benefits of our school system—the seamless transition from Junior to Secondary Education. Here, we create an environment that allows our boys to engage in various activities across the entire school, fostering camaraderie and skill development.
One of our proudest examples of this seamless integration is the inspiring story of our Head Boy, Metha Skulmanayeunyong. Metha displayed remarkable initiative and leadership by setting up the 'Rubik's Cube Club.' The club is supervised by a Junior School teacher, where Metha and his peers work together to teach fellow students strategies to solve the Rubik's Cube with lightning speed.
We are delighted to share that this club has seen tremendous success and enthusiasm among our students. Recently, several of our boys participated in a thrilling Rubik's Challenge, where they showcased their problem-solving skills and perseverance. Among them, we were particularly thrilled to see Adam Le excel and make it to the Grand Final on Thursday at recess.
Our college takes pride in nurturing each student's unique talents and interests, be it in academics, sports, arts, or any other field. We firmly believe that by providing opportunities like the 'Rubik's Cube Club,' we can help our boys discover their passions and potential, preparing them for a successful journey through their educational years.
As the academic year progresses, we look forward to witnessing more such stories of determination, leadership, and camaraderie among our students. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Metha, the Rubik's Cube Club members, and the Junior School teacher for their dedication and efforts in making this initiative a success.

The Miracle of New Life
On Monday Year 5 Green’s chicken eggs and incubator were delivered. We received the eggs 19 days into their gestation period of 21 days. The boys are now the proud parents of 5 hatched baby chickens. We are hoping that the remaining 5 eggs will hatch before the weekend. This has been part of our Religious Education, Health Safety and Wellness program.
The boy’s thoughts;
- The most exciting part was watching the first chick hatch! - Levi Agapitos
