Student Challenges

Each week we will have two or more student challenges. One will link directly to our school values, while the other one will be a bit of fun to break the boredom. Submitted photos / videos will go into the year level newsletter with winners announced at each level. 

 Last week: At Home Workout Challenge and Who Am I? Challenge

Thank you to everyone for your fantastic entries into the week 6 challenges. Have a look in the student newsletters to see some of the best entries.

Challenge 1 - Best Artwork Blind    #PERSISTENCE

This challenge is for all those artists out there who would like a challenge. Using a scarf or hat to cover your eyes draw a picture of you sitting in your workspace whilst in isolation. Remember to use the college value of persistence to overcome this challenge.

Send your picture to BLC@prsc.vic.edu.au by Monday 1st June.  Don’t forget to tell us your full name and home group. Students who submit pictures will receive points for their house.

Challenge 2 - Bottle Flip      #FUN

We all know the famous bottle flip challenge that went around the world a few years ago. Now is the time to give it a go again. Send through a 15 second video of you flipping a bottle to BLC@prsc.vic.edu.au by Monday 1st June. Don’t forget to tell us your full name and home group. Students who submit a video will receive points for their house.

Results will be published in next week’s Sway.
