Term 3 Reflection
As Term 3 finishes, the Year 7 class of 2016 edges closer to the end of their first year in high school.
Term 3 has been another busy term, where students have had the opportunity to engage in a range of sporting teams, excursions and incursions. Students have also been doing weekly home group activities, focusing on healthy lunch orders, appropriate use of iPads, goals setting and much more. We also had students participating in a Leadership camp, musical performances, the school production and many more engaging activities.
We encourage students to continue to undertake the opportunities which are presented to them in Term 4.

Looking forward to Term 4
In Term 4, students will continue to engage in their weekly resilience and well-being activities in Home Group. They will also be continuing with a range of extra-curricular programs. We encourage students to use this time to reflect on their first three terms of school.
Students are also encouraged to set new goals for Term 4 and to continue to aim to improve their approach to their school work.
Parents and Guardians are encouraged to also contact their son/daughter’s teachers.
