Meet The Students
This week we spoke with Jonah Walker in 7Q about his start at BSC. Jonah is from Nicholson and attended Lucknow Primary School.
Q. How have you first few weeks been?
OK. Some positive and negative moments. It’s been lots of fun playing basketball during breaks but sometimes being heard in class can be a challenge.
Q. What have you been learning?
Maths we have been learning about positive and negative numbers. This has been a bit challenging. Japanese we have learnt some basic words. Science we have been learning about Bunsen burners. In Humanities we learnt about the first settlers and timelines.
Q. What’s your funniest moment been?
Throwing the rubber chicken in PE and getting it stuck in the roof of the BARC by accident.
Q. How did you go at the swimming sports?
At Bairnsdale got 2nd in butterfly and 5 first places in freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, and relay. At Orbost I got 1st in the Backstroke and medley and 2nd in the breaststroke.
Q. What are some of your Hobbies?
I like hunting fishing and football. I also like video games and driving around the farm or in a go-kart.
