Junior School news

Congratulations on making it to the end of term 1! It has certainly been a busy term with a lot of fun and interactive activities going on.

Students are encouraged to take home school books from their locker, and only bring the books and equipment they will need for the day, in the case we are given a directive to close the school. Please continue to read your emails and Compass Newsfeed to keep updated with advice from the Department of Education and Training.

Peer Support

Year 7 Peer Support will be finishing up by the end of this term. Peer Support has been a great success in building positive relationships between our junior and senior students as well as helping to develop a sense of belonging among our Year 7 students. The students have made many friendships with students in other classes.

It was great to see so many Year 8 students participate last week in the interschool sports round robin. We fielded teams in tennis, softball, volleyball and lawn bowls. Unfortunately the Year 7 ound robin has been cancelled.
